If I Give My Soul lyrics
Song information
Artist: Johnny Cash Album: Unearthed
Lyrics
Down a dangerous road,i have come to where I'm standing With a heavy heart,and my hat clutched in my hand Such a foolish fool,god ain't known no greater sinner I have come in search of jesus,hoping he will understand
I had a woman once,she was kind and she was gentle Had a child by me,who grew up to be a man I had a steady job,til I started into drinking And I started making music that went with the devil's band
Oh the years flew by like a mighty rush of eagles My dreams and plans were all scattered in the wind It's a lonesome life,when you lose the ones you live for If I make my peace with jesus will they take me back again
If I give my soul,will he cleanse these clothes I'm wearin' If I give my soul,will he put new boots on my feet If I bow my head and beg god for his forgiveness Will he breathe new breath inside me and give back my dignity
If I give my soul,will he stop my hands from shaking If I give my soul,will my son love me again If I give my soul,and she knows I really mean it If I give my soul to jesus will she take me back again
If I give my soul to jesus will she take me back again
