My Deal With God lyrics

Some say it’s just the way I look at night

Some say it’s just the way I dance

Some say they’ll pray for my deliverance

Well, I don’t expect surprises now,

but I’m gonna take the chance,

just go on...

Tell me what it’s like,

I can’t hear the angels sing,

I can’t hear the angels sing the book of love

Just prove me1 that you’re right

and I’ll be man enough to make,

I’ll be man enough to make

my deal with God

Ooh, my deal with God

Some say it’s 'cause I’ve heard the devil talk

Some say it’s 'cause I’m dressed in black

Some say they call on my intelligence

Well, I’m sorry for your ignorant,2

but I’ve been to hell and back,

just go on...

Tell me what it’s like,

I can’t hear the angels sing

I can’t hear the angels sing the book of love

Just prove me that you’re right

and I’ll be man enough to make,

I’ll be man enough to make

my deal with God

Yeah, my deal with God

Some say it must have been my mama’s fault

Some say I’m just an errant lamb

Some simply can’t see true magnificence

So now, let me tell you something, saint,

You won't change the way I am,but go on...

Tell me what it’s like,

I can’t hear the angels sing,

I can’t hear the angels sing the book of love

Just prove me that you’re right

and I’ll be man enough to make,

I’ll be man enough to make

my deal with God

Yeah, my deal with God [x2]

Make my deal with God
