| Lyrics: | (Shaver Billy Joe)
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
I had a woman once,she was kind and
she was gentle
Had a child by me,who grew up to be a man
I had a steady job,til i started
into drinking
And i started making music that went with the devil's band
Oh the years
flew by like a mighty rush of eagles
My dreams and plans were all scattered in the wind
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 cleanse these clothes i'm wearin'
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 back my dignity
If i give my soul,will he stop my
hands from shaking
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
If i give
my soul to Jesus will she take me back again |
