Take Pity On My Soul

I have been bad
And I have been good
Done a lot of things
And I've been misunderstood
Take pity on my soul

Walked with the devil
And hand in hand with the Lord
Taken what's given to me
From this godforsaken world
Take pity on my soul

Stepped where angels feared
To regain what's mine
Took a lot of hard knocks
Drank a lot of beer and wine
Take pity on my soul

Life was just a game to me
You see, a game of shooting dice
But too many losers and winners
Just had to pay the price
Take pity on my soul

I want to redeem my guilt-ridden soul
But it will take an eternity
An eternity of paying back
A lifetime of misery
Take pity on my soul

I want to walk with the angels
And hand in hand with the lord
Return the things I don't need
To this godforsaken world
Take pity on my soul
