All That You Have Is Your Soul

1. Oh my mama told me

cause she learned the hard way

say she wanna spare the children

she say don't give or sell your soul away 'cause

all that you have is your soul.

Don' be tempted by the shinny apple,

don't you eat - of the bitter fruit.

Hunger only for a taste of justice,

hunger only for a word of truth, 'cause

all that you have is your soul.

I was a pretty young girl once,

I had dreams, I had high hopes.

Married a man, he stole my heart away,

he gave his love but what a hig price I paid and

all that you have is your soul.

2. Why was I such a young fool

Thought I'd make history

Making babies was the best I could do

Thought I'd make someting that could me mine forever

Found out the hard way once can't possess another

And all that you have is your soul

3. I thought, thought that I could find a way

to beat the system

to make a deal and have no debts to pay

I'd take it all, I'd run away

Me for myself fist class and first rate

But all that you have is your soul.

4. Here I am waiting for a better day

A second change

A little luck to come my way

A hope to dream, a hope that I can sleep again

And wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands

'Cause all that you have is your soul.

All that you have is your soul...
