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 'll leave you thirsty fire 'll 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 body's 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
