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
Aint 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
Goin' down
Down, down
I'm going down
