|
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 man |
|
God ain't known no greater sinner |
|
I have come in search of |
|
JesusHoping 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 |
|
Started playing music |
|
Traveling 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 |
|
JesusWill |
|
He take me back again? |
|
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 |
|
JesusWill she take me back again? |
|
If I give my soul |
|
Will he clean 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 within me |
|
And bring her back to me? |
