Lyrics
No one else there saw it
Just Gabriel as he fell
Jimmy’s ghost, the man he killed
As the keeper rang the bell
Flash back to Las Vegas
He promised to make someone pay
But what went down in the seventh round
Shouldn’t have gone that way
The sweet science of bruisin'
Beneath casino lights
Gabriel and Jimmy
Touch gloves and start to fight
Family round his bedside
Jimmy’s out, there is no change
They’re pleasant on the outside
But Gabriel’s to blame
It wasn’t even the title
They fought way down the bill
Gabriel didn’t pull a punch
But he didn’t mean to kill
The sweet science of bruisin'
Beneath casino lights
Gabriel and Jimmy
Touch gloves and start to fight
He ignored the premonition
Lit a candle, said a prayer
He sees in every boxer’s face
The ghost of Jimmy’s stare
The sweet science of bruisin'
Beneath casino lights
Gabriel and Jimmy
Touch gloves and start to
The sweet science of bruisin'
Beneath casino lights
Gabriel and Jimmy
Touch gloves and start to fight
