Testo No Deal - Guy Clark
Testo della canzone No Deal (Guy Clark), tratta dall'album Better Days
I said, "No deal, you can't sell that stuff to me
Oh no deal, I'm going back to Tennessee"
I said, "No deal, you can't sell that stuff to me
Oh no deal, I'm going back to Tennessee"
Well this man down at the used car lot
Tried to sell me four wheels and a trunk
I said, "Man, there ain't no engine"
He said, "The engine's just a bunch of junk"
He said, "You don't need no engine to go downhill
And I could plainly see, that that's the direction
You're headed in," and he handed me the keys
I said, "No deal, you can't sell that stuff to me
Oh no deal, I'm going back to Tennessee"
Well, I went to a doctor of the highest order
He said I couldn't have a drink for a year
One glass of wine on my birthday
If my birthday wasn't too very near
Lord, he must have put me in a state of shock
'Cause I made it for about two weeks
Then he sent me a bill that knocked me flat off the wagon
And back down on my feet
And I said, "No deal, you can't sell that stuff to me
Oh no deal, I'm going back to Tennessee"
I said, "No deal, you can't sell that stuff to me
Oh no deal, I'm going back to Tennessee"
Well, I come through this life a stumbler, my friends
I expect to die that way
It could be twenty years from now
It could be most any day
But if there ain't no whiskey and women, Lord
Behind them heavenly doors
I'm gonna take my chances down below
And of that you can be sure
I said, "No deal, you can't sell that stuff to me
Oh no deal, I'm going back to Tennessee"
I said, "No deal, you can't sell that stuff to me
Oh no deal, I'm going back to Tennessee"
