Well, do you say, nobody hears me when I prayAnd if you say, I don't care to live past, what's today And if you say, oh, brother last night I prayedYour preacher isn't preaching at home And if you say, nobody hears me when I cryAnd if you say, well I just don't understand why And if you say, I just can't take it, I'm saying goodbye When you're walking it's a heavy, heavy load To make it lighter, sing Sold my soul at the bottom of the hill The demons there they shaved my hair And they made me take their pills My cold soul is at the bottom of the hill Oh, I should have walked on by Let her cry and only drink my fill Some men they say, there is more to us than is known Some ladies say, well there's some things we're not shown All the people say, you're stepping on our homes And your footprints, endeavors, never told But still we'll sing Sold my soul at the bottom of the hill The demons there they shaved my hair And they made me take their pills My cold soul is at the bottom of the hill Woah, I should have walked on by Let her cry and only drink my fill Only drink my fill
