Jimmy Dean Lyrics - Singles - Icehouse

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 

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 

Well, now Mr D whispered in his ear 

Hey c'mon, let's make a deal 

Engines running hot singing Jimmy Dean 

Any time 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 

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 

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
