All that You Have Is Your Soul

Intro :                     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. 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 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. 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...
