LYRICS
Black clouds blowing ‘cross a blustery sky
Black clouds blowing ‘cross a blustery sky
South of Highway 7 all alone crying oh soul I sold you away
When you sell your soul it opens a deep dark hole
When you sell your soul it opens a deep dark hole
Drink will leave you thirsty
Fire will leave you cold oh soul I sold you away

Oh my soul I sold you away oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away oh soul I sold you away

It started with desires sweet soft kiss
It started with desires sweet soft kiss
Ended in an alley with my face against a fist
Oh soul I sold you away

Oh my soul I sold you away oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away oh soul I sold you away

Redemption, redemption have mercy on me
Redemption, redemption have mercy on me
A bodies but a prison when the soul’s a refugee
Oh soul I sold you away
I’m pulling into Greenwood to get down on my knees
Pulling into Greenwood to get down on my knees
By Robert Johnson’s grave pray my soul back to me
Oh soul I sold you away

Oh my soul I sold you away oh my soul I sold you away
Oh my soul I sold you away oh soul I sold you away
