Here are lyrics to a song I plan on recording and possibly submitting on Taxi. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!


“The devil’s got a hold of my soul”

Excuse me I am much obliged
I need a piece of friendly advice
Forgive me for my transgressions
Got no time for confession

(Chorus)
Oh lord it’s bearing down on me
Oh lord are you listening?
The devil’s got a hold of my soul
Seems to me that he won’t let go

Oh lord help me walk the line
Because I’m on borrowed time
I can’t take all this frustration
I got all kinds of temptation

(Chorus)
Oh lord it’s bearing down on me
Oh lord are you listening?
The devil’s got a hold of my soul
Seems to me that he won’t let go

(Bridge)

Don’t you know I was born sin?
Too far gone to ask forgiveness
This heart of mine has been jaded
Innocence has surely faded

(Chorus)
Oh lord it’s bearing down on me
Oh lord are you listening?
The devil’s got a hold of my soul
Seems to me that he won’t let go
