In my line of work oh yeah
The pay is real high
The work I do is outside the law
Highly risky though
You have to be a tough guy
To kill is a skill not damnation
So I used to think
If you need someone killed
Meet me here
Leave me to seal the deal

You're drinking with a regular Joe hitman
I do what I do, like to help if I can
Dont be afraid I've done this before you know?
There will be no comeback no-one knows we were here

When I've worked out a plan
You'll be happy
Your hit is as good as dead
I'm very precise
Very mad they say
I am the best in this game
Sat here with you drinking whiskey
Watching showgirls in this sleazy bar
I'm here all the time
Keeping my head down
This is a good place to hide

Things are no longer easy
Shadows seem to be laughing at me
My past is gaining me everyday
I see faces of the dead staring at me
What is it they are not saying?
I used to do this job
Without a care in the world
Now I'm being haunted by the past
The reaper is following me around
He's waiting for me
I have a sentence to serve in Hell
He's ready to take me
