if i give my soul - marty stuart lyrics

written by billy joe shaver

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 food, god ain’t known no greater sinner
i have come in search of jesus, hoping he will understand
had a woman once, she was kind and she was gentle
had a child by me, who grew up to be a man
had a steady job, til i started into drinking
then i started making music traveling with the devil’s band

oh the years flew by, like a might rush of eagles
our dreams and plans were, all scattered the wind
well, 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 clean these clothes i’m wearing
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 me back my dignity

if i give my soul, will he stop my hands from shakin’
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
