Sold My Soul to the Devil Lyrics
I sold my soul to the devil
Won’t get it back from there
I sold my soul to the devil
And less I could really not care

Been standing at the crossroads
And my tongue it was on fire
Been standing at the crossroads
Being tempted by desire

I sold my soul to the devil
And I won’t get it back from there
I sold my soul to the devil
And less I surely could not really care

I faxed my soul up to heaven
Don’t think that it arrived
I faxed my soul up to heaven
I want to get out of here alive

It’s the end of the highway
And the judges wait for us
It’s the end of the highway
Soon we’ll be no more than dust

Sold my soul to the devil
Sold my soul to the devil
Sold my soul to the devil
Sold my soul to the devil

It’s the end of the highway
And the judges wait for us
It’s the end of the highway
Soon we’ll be no more than dust

I faxed my soul up to heaven
Don’t think that it arrived
I faxed my soul up to heaven
Just trying to survive

I sold my soul to the devil
Won’t get it back from there
Soul to the devil
It’s my ticket to go anywhere

Paul Robert Thomas
