|
There's a mist over Broadway |
|
Breathing cool sheets of rain |
|
Lights his last cigarette and |
|
Turns his back to the wind |
|
BRIDGE |
|
She says, baby, I don't know |
|
Just how to explain |
|
And I can't see the sense |
|
And I can't play this game |
|
But he's not even listening |
|
He stares at the ground |
|
And she won't ever know |
|
What was on his mind |
|
CHORUS |
|
Well, now, he's a rebel without a cause |
|
Hey, c'mon, let's make a deal |
|
See your name in lights just like Jimmy Dean |
|
Live and die behind the wheel |
|
Opened out on the highway |
|
Leaving her far behind |
|
There's a star down on Sunset |
|
He says, yeah, this one's mine |
|
BRIDGE |
|
CHORUS |
|
Well, now, Mr. D whispered in his ear |
|
Hey, c'mon, let's make a deal |
|
Engines running hot, singing Jimmy Dean |
|
Anytime there's time to kill |
|
He drove like a demon |
|
And he burned up the screen |
|
But he never looked back, no |
|
She just wasted my time |
|
CHORUS |
|
Gonna let those horses loose again |
|
Hey, c'mon, let's make a deal |
|
See them running wild just like Jimmy Dean |
|
Overdrive in chrome and steel |
|
Hey, c'mon |
|
Hey, c'mon, let's make a deal |
|
Well, now, he's a rebel without a cause |
|
Live and die behind the wheel |
