jimmy dean

there's a mist over broadway

breathing cool sheets of rain

lights his last cigarette and

turns his back to the wind

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

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

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

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
