Willy Mason - Sold My Soul Lyrics

Well, do you say
Nobody hears me when I pray.
And if you say
I just don't care to live past what's today.
And if you say
Oh, brother last night I prayed
Your preacher isn't preaching at home.

And if you say
Nobody hears me when I cry.
And if you say
Well I just don't understand why.
And if you say
I just can't take it, I'm saying goodbye.

When you're walking
It's a heavy, heavy load.
To make the load lighter
Sing

Sold my soul
At the bottom of the hill.
The demons there
They shaved my hair

And made me take their pills.
My cold soul
Is at the bottom of the hill.
Oh I should have walked on by

Let her cry
And only drank my fill.

Some men they say
There is more to us than Is known.
Some ladies say
Well there's some things we're not shown.

All people say
You're stepping on our homes.
And your footprints
Endeavors, never told.
But still we'll sing.

Sold my soul
At the bottom of the hill.
The demons there
They shaved my hair

And made me take their pills.
My cold soul
Is at the bottom of the hill.
Oh I should have walked on by

Let her cry
And only drank my fill.
