And I started making music traveling with the Devil's Band
If I give my soul, will he cleanse these clothes I'm wearin'?
Oh the years flew by like a mighty rush of eagles
If I bow my head and beg God for his forgiveness
Our dreams and plans were all scattered in the wind
If I give my soul to Jesus, will she take me back again?
If I give my soul and she knows I really mean it
Had a child by me, who grew up to be a man
If I bow my head and beg God for his forgiveness
I had a woman once, she was kind and she was gentle
If I give my soul, will he stop my hands from shaking?
And it's a lonesome life, when you lose the ones you live for
If I give my soul, will he put new boots on my feet?
If I give my soul, will my son love me again?
I have come in search of Jesus, hoping he will understand
I had a steady job till I started into drinking
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'?
Will he breathe new life within me and bring her back to me?
If I give my soul, will he put new boots on my feet?
Such a foolish man, God ain't known no greater sinner
