Tinsley Ellis - To the Devil for a Dime Lyrics
I got a traveling bones, On the day I was born.I left my only home, To find what I'm looking for.They say the world must be round, So I sailed the seven seas.But searching for a brand new world, Is getting the best of me.(Chorus) I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime.Sell my soul to the devil for a dime.I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime.Sell my soul to the devil for a dime.I worked twenty-five years, On that assembly line.Until they finally made that gear, Took away that job of mine.Now I'm out here on this corner, I got holes in both my shoes.I got no where to turn, I've got nothing to lose.Except these blues.(CHORUS)(GUITAR SOLO)I been on this boulevard, Since nineteen sixty-nine.My finding work was so hard. Thought about stepping over the line.Now I know someday my ticket, My ticket number's got to win.Now a cold, cold wind is blowing, Down the back of my coat again.It's such a sin.(CHORUS)(GUITAR SOLO w/refrain.)I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime.
