Oh Soul Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Black clouds blowing ‘cross a blustery sky
Black clouds blowing ‘cross a blustery sky
South of Highway 7 all alone crying
Oh soul I sold you away
[Verse 2]
When you sell your soul it opens a deep dark hole
When you sell your soul it opens a deep dark hole
Drink ‘ll leave you thirsty, fire ’ll leave you cold
Oh soul I sold you away
[Chorus]
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh soul I sold you away
[Verse 3]
It started with desire's sweet soft kiss
It started with desire's sweet soft kiss
It ended in an alley with my face against a fist
Oh soul I sold you away
[Chorus]
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh soul I sold you away
[Verse 4]
Redemption, redemption have mercy on me
Redemption, redemption have mercy on me
A body’s but a prison when the soul’s a refugee
Oh soul I sold you away
[Verse 5]
I’m pulling into Greenwood to get down on my knees
Pulling into Greenwood to get down on my knees
By Robert Johnson’s grave pray my soul back to me
Oh soul I sold you away
[Chorus]
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away
Oh soul I sold you away
