Lord Have Mercy on My Soul Songtext
von The Fuzztones

Walked through the halls of karma
I shook hands with both the Devil and God
They turned my eyes to look inside
To see where my energies have gone

I walked with both all through my life
I respected and reflected them both
The sympathy of God as he looked at my life
And the excitement of the Devil as we talked

So Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on my soul, on my soul

The Devil said, "Scratch my back"
And I′ll scratch your back for sure
But having done these sins for him
I could not keep pure

I found out what means more to me
Than anything on this earth
To be ready for my judgement day
Ready to face the truth


So Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on my soul
Yeah, on my soul, on my soul so low

Lord, have mercy on my soul
Lord, have mercy on my soul, on my soul so low

I hope I've done the rights thing
For both your sake and mine
I returned for the revel
My only fear is fear of time
I wanted to look logical to both my maker and his host
This trip of life must be complete or my course will be lost

So Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on my soul
On my soul, on my soul below

Lord, have mercy on my soul
Lord, have mercy on my soul

Well, I walked through the halls of karma
I shook hands with both the Devil and God
They turned my eyes to look inside
To see where my energies have gone


I ran with both all through my life
I respected and reflected them both
Yes, the sympathy of God as he looked at my life
And the excitement of the Devil as we talked

So Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on my soul
Yeah, on my soul
On my soul below

Lord, have mercy on my soul
Lord, have mercy on my soul
Lord, have mercy on my soul
Lord, have mercy on my soul
On my soul, on my soul
On my soul (Lord, have mercy on my soul)
Lord, have mercy on my soul

And those were the Fuzztones
Made a dandy single in these days
