The Deal
(words & music by Markus Rill) |

| I've seen way too many Martin
Scorsese movies but I haven't yet heard a mafia song. Here's
my attempt. Of course, it's really about trying to do the
right thing with your life. Sometimes you need to hang on
to your dreams. Quite raunchy, musically.- I'm aware of the
fact that this lyric is heavily indebted to Springsteen's
"Jungleland." |

Word is out on the street
Frankie told Johnny and Johnny told me
It could be any day now we'll make a deal
With these guys from outta town

I can't tell you what it's all about
But, girl, when that deal goes down
We'll have time and money to spend
And I swear I won't get locked up again

'cause when that deal goes down
when that deal goes down, now
when that deal goes down
we're gonna quit this town and start all over
when that deal goes down

Baby, we'll be outta here
Soon as I get my share
I'll find me an honest job
We'll take the kids and leave behind our rotten luck

'cause when that deal goes down
when that deal goes down, now
when that deal goes down
we're gonna quit this town and start all over
when that deal goes down

And let's keep our hopes up high
And pray this'll really be the last time
No more cheatin' and lyin'
No more shootin' and doin' time

'cause when that deal goes down
when that deal goes down, now
when that deal goes down
we're gonna quit this town and start all over
when that deal goes down
