If I Give My Soul

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 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?
