WHEN THE DEALING’S DONE

(I realize how fortunate I am.  Not many private artists like myself have the privilege of having one of the greatest voices the world has ever known sing lead and play rhythm guitar on one of his original tunes.  I won't go into all the details on how this came about but will simply express my joy, thanks and elation that Dayna did what she did.  And I heartily invite you to check out her collected works for yourself.  It's an undertaking you'll never regret.  And thanks again to Dion for adding just the right touch of lead guitar to make this track easily one of my favorites on the entire album.)

Dayna Kurtz - acoustic guitar, lead vocal
Dion Sweatt - electric guitar
Lesley Diane - backing vocals
Mitchell Miller - electric piano, bass, drums, backing vocals

I'll hide as long as I am able 
Till there's nowhere else to run
I left my cards upon the table
Where will I be when the dealing's done?

We're all alone and so disjointed
Who made me be what I've become?
How'd I end up so disappointed?
Where will I be when the dealing's done?

The other actors left the stage
And now I'm the only one
And I'm left to turn the page
I can't wait to find
I can't wait to see
If you know my mind
Or if you heard my plea
Where will I be when the dealing's done?

Where will I be?
Where will I be?
Where will I be when the dealing's done?

the drunk woke Saturday morning in a pool of his own mess
Peter burst into the room in an obvious state of distress
he screamed, “Don’t you know what’s been going on?” 
as he slapped the drunk in the face
and regarded the skinny whores with scorn who were lying all around the place
he said “Now pull yourselves together…get you to the Upper Room
they crucified Jesus yesterday and they’ll be coming for us soon!”

he’d been drinking since Palm Sunday with some alcoholic friends
he checked in for the Last Supper and went out on the lash again
so while Judas sold out Jesus and Peter had denied Him
John stood with His mother while the rest went into hiding
the drunk was out cruising and chasing two bit whores
pissing in the alleyways and passing out on floors

well come Easter Sunday morning back in the Upper Room
the Apostles were in mourning…all under a cloud of doom
yeah but none more than the drunk who was screaming with the shakes
and hallucinating demons with their hands all full of snakes
foaming at the mouth and rolling around on the floor
and just then Mary Magdalene she come busting through the door

she exclaimed, “He is alive and I have seen the Risen Lord!”
Thomas said, “What does she know? She’s just a love sick whore!”
she said, “Well if you don’t believe me go and see the empty tomb
yeah He broke the chains of death and He’ll be coming for us soon!”
the Apostles were in an uproar…Peter said, “Let me think!”
while the drunk screamed out from the floor “someone get me a drink!”

when the Risen Lord appeared to them the drunk he cowered in shame
Jesus stared straight at him and called him by his name
well Jesus’ eyes were burning and a smile lit up His face
and He walked up to the drunk and He gave him a warm embrace
and He said, “Now Brother, you were truly a fool 
but no more than the rest of these punks
I will name you The Pissed Apostle…the patron saint of drunks!”

and he cried, “Oh sweet Jesus! What have I gone and done?
while they nailed Ya to the cross 
I was out running ‘round and having fun
oh now Lord, won’t You tell me how I can ever make amends
and I’ll never touch another whore or chase a drink again!”

now in my house there's been a mercy killing
the man I used to be has been crucified
and the death of this man was the final way of revealing
that in a spiritual way to live…I had to die

now if I let the dead man linger in me
I might get a little idol in my way.
so I'm going down to the Celebration River,
gonna take this dead man down to a Water Grave

I'm goin' down to the river, my Lord
and I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my Heavenly Father
the man I use to be has finally died 

I'm goin' down to the river, my Lord
I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my Heavenly Father
the man I use to be has finally died 

when I think of where I'm goin'
in terms of where I've been
it makes me glad to know, my Lord
that I've been born again

I'm goin' down to the river, my Lord 
I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my Heavenly Father
the man I use to be has finally died

I'm goin' down to the river, my Lord
I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my Heavenly Father
the man I use to be has finally died
I’m goin’ down

Down…going down…born again

Time Stand Still (feat. Matt Morgan & Miller Mann)

Fascinated with all things musical from an early age, I began playing drums at the age of 4 and the piano at the age of 6. 

Brought up in a religious family my first practical performance experience was playing gospel music at home, church and on the road. I also played in rock bands as a teenager. As a young adult I put aside my practice of religion but never gave up on my love of Xtian music. 

In 1990 at the tender age of 26 I released my first private album, "Conventional Wisdom" and since then I have recorded 20 private albums, always around Xmas time and always giving away copies as presents. 

All my original recordings are available for free download if you get bored.If you want to leave me feedback please drop a line to millerman31564@msn.com. 

Peace to all and thanks for dropping by!! MM
