Title: If I Give My Soul
Artist: Stuart Marty
Composer(s): Billy Joe Shaver
Lyric:
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
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, till I started into drinking
Then I started making music traveling with the devil's band
Ohh, the years flew by like a mighty 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?
