He left early morning
Heading west on the road
Many miles to add to his collection
He'd been down this road before
Knew it like the back of his hand
Through the outback, didn't need protection
He'd been fighting with his wife
Didn't even think to say goodbye
That's when
Fate's Hand
You just can't ask why
Fate's Hand
Will pick you up, take to the sky
Fate's Hand
He had a road train
He was doing' 90 mile
Not much time to move aside
He didn't see it coming
A drifter sitting in his way
He swerved and lost control
Back home his wife was crying
She hadn't had a chance to say goodbye
