Deep Down Songtext
von IV and the Strange Band

Deep down he could deliver
Or it′s reachin' ′round the hand to a quiver
And that sound made the air shiver
And she was shakin' like a dog in the winter
And that arrow went straight through her liver
It went deep down

As a child he felt the creeping need
To hold the rubies in his hand for the feed
It didn't matter who he′d hurt with his deeds
If they ain′t living, who's gonna even see?

She was laying in the trunk of that car
Just hoping that she′d get out and see the stars
But he was planning to gut her like a garr
And then hide her like a coal in the char


Deep down he could deliver
All the reachin' ′round his hand to a quiver
That sound made the air shiver
She was shakin' like a dog in the winter
That arrow went straight through her liver
It went deep down

Now he′d take her where all his treasure lay
A people all marked the hollow of decay
Like wicked acts in his grim macabre play
To start his digging so he'd know where she would stay

Dark souls never meet a happy end
Our killer had himself a secret little friend
That used to follow him whatever his plan
And now he laid him in the darkness of his sins

Deep down he could deliver
Or it's reachin′ ′round the hand to a quiver
That sound made the air shiver
She was shakin' like a dog in the winter
That arrow went straight through her liver
It went deep down


Deep down he could deliver
Or it′s reachin' ′round the hand to a quiver
That sound made the air shiver
She was shakin' like a dog in the winter
That arrow went straight through her liver
It went deep down
