Crooked Soul
I'm a rambling man
I'm a restless soul
And I feel my heart
With it's gaping holes
Try to fill it up
With the world's sweet milk
But it leaks right out
Leaving dust and filth
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
I was born so far
From my daddy's place
And my uncle cursed me
Down to my grave
There's a devil watching
All the moves I make
And I can feel his breath
With every step I take
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
In a muddy river
Where I washed my stains
And the Holy Ghost
Oh my life reclaimed
Well I can't help but wonder
If I have been changed
Am I dazzling white
Or am I still the same?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
So I cry to God
On this chapel floor
I'm a seasoned sinner
Can you make me more?
Help me give my coat
To the weak and poor
So I can wash up naked
On your Golden Shore!
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
I'm a restless soul
And I feel my heart
With it's gaping holes
Try to fill it up
With the world's sweet milk
But it leaks right out
Leaving dust and filth
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
I was born so far
From my daddy's place
And my uncle cursed me
Down to my grave
There's a devil watching
All the moves I make
And I can feel his breath
With every step I take
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
In a muddy river
Where I washed my stains
And the Holy Ghost
Oh my life reclaimed
Well I can't help but wonder
If I have been changed
Am I dazzling white
Or am I still the same?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
So I cry to God
On this chapel floor
I'm a seasoned sinner
Can you make me more?
Help me give my coat
To the weak and poor
So I can wash up naked
On your Golden Shore!
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
Can you save, oh save, oh save this crooked soul?
