Sold My Soul

Sold my soul for a sixpence shoe
Kicked me in the ass; now what do I do?
Sold my soul for a rum-butt band
Marched on off to another land.
Sold my soul for the Taj Mahal
Lost the deed in a bettin' brawl.
Sold my soul for a diamond ring
Dropped in the rain; rusted the damn thing.
Sold my soul for a summer day.
Winter came and took it away.
Sold my soul for a church hymn book
The devil burned it with just one look.
Sold my soul for a chicken meal
Lost it in another deal.
Sold my soul for a bit of fame
Bet it in a poker game.
Sold my soul for a medieval lance.
The devil stashed it in just one glance.
Sold my soul for a one-night stand
Lost it to the rum-butt band.
Sold my soul for some love from God
Lost it when I let go of the iron rod.
Sold my soul for a trusted friend
She flew away at the new day's end.
Sold my soul for faith in you
You dashed my dreams and split them in two.
Sold my soul for immortality
I don't want it if that's where you'll be.
Sold my soul for a love that's real
Gave it up when you trashed the deal.
I sold my soul and what did you do?
You took my world and murdered it too.
