When the deal goin' down
And you gonna take your chance
There's always just a mystery
That locks you in a trance
No matter what the future brings
You're booked and lawd, you're bound
Be steppin' softly when you know
The deal is goin' down
When the deal go down
And the noose is bein' tied
Ain't no gettin' round it
Fade back and let it lie
No matter what the future brings
You're booked and lawd, you're bound
Be steppin softly when you know
The deal is goin' down
No matter what the future brings
You're booked and lawd, you're bound
Be steppin softly when you know
No matter what the future brings
You're booked and lawd, you're bound
Be steppin softly when you know
The deal is goin' down
Down
Down
I'm goin' down
Oh, down
