I sold my soul to the Devil
'Cause I craved to feel alive
I sold my soul to the Devil
And now he's walking by my side
He whispers in my ear "everything's goin' to be alright"
I sold my soul to the Devil
Was not a choise, was a need
I sold my soul to the Devil
Ain't no salvation for me
If I deserve Hell, I will gladly pay my bill
I met him when I was just a child
He didn't teach me what is wrong or right
The preacher said "He was not the Lord"
He said "Don't talk with him anymore"
I sold my soul to the Devil
I didn't even have to sign
I sold my soul to the Devil
I got no beef with the Divine
They claimed my subscription, but I gently declined
Was not long before he showed up
First time I picked up a guitar
The preacher screamed "
Stay away from him,
Don't let the Devil tell you who to be"
I sold my soul to the Devil
You know, he never forced my hand
I sold my soul to the Devil
I'll always be my own man
I only live once, so I just cannot waste my chance
And now that I got nothing to pray for
The preacher ostracized me from the Church, so
Yelling and cryng, unchained and free
I bring with me all my pain and my sins
I sold my soul to the Devil
'Cause I craved to feel alive
I sold my soul to the Devil
And now he's walking by my side
He whispers in my ear "everything's goin' to be alright"

Blues Is Gone
05:01
|
|||
|
Well, my friend, the Blues is gone
He left the keys on the kitchen table, didn't say a word
Catch your breath, but you know the day will come
He will knock on your door, once more
I don't believe in fate and predestination
My old man said "This is life
You give your best in every situation
But troubles find you even if you hide
So, if you find the peace before Eternal Rest
Enjoy it, while it lasts
You know, these little fleeting moments
When it seems like the Blues you never had"
Well, my friend, the Blues is gone
He left the keys on the kitchen table, didn't say a word
Catch your breath, but you know the day will come
He will knock on your door, once more
I got no money to pay the rent
I got no woman to treat me right
Too many voices inside my head
Too many things that keep me up at night
Lord, I'm howlin', I'm howlin' at the moon
I moved somewhere, far away
Baby, I should be leaving soon
Before the blues can stand in my way
Well, my friend, the Blues is gone
He left the keys on the kitchen table, didn't say a word
Catch your breath, but you know the day will come
And he will knock on your door, once more
He will knock on your door, once more
He will knock on your door, once more

Feel Like I'm Dead
04:23
|
|||
|
First time we met, we where young and wild
Some would call it "love at first sight"
But it didn't take much
Before I realized my one-sided crush
Every time my mind flies
To your smile, to your eyes,
Babe, I sware
That I feel like I'm dead
You played with me, you liked it, don't ya?
I was a fool under your command
Now, tell me how does it feel
To make my heart-rate increase?
Every time my mind flies
To your smile, to your eyes,
Babe, I swear
That I feel like I'm dead
I need your love, you just don't care,
It's like being under an evil spell
But now I'm out of this race,
I'm going to find another way
Every time my mind flies
To your smile, to your eyes,
Babe, I swear
That I fell like I'm dead
You said you're trying to find yourself,
To define the space of your perfect loneliness
And there's no room for me in your life
I'm not listed, but I'll be fine
Every time my mind flies
To your smile, to your eyes,
Babe, I swear That I feel like I'm dead
The train is gone, it didn't look back
I waited for you maybe too much
Even if now I'm a mess
I got nothing to regret
Every time my mind flies
To your smile, to your eyes,
Babe, I swear That I feel like I'm dead
(one more time)
Every time my mind flies
To your smile, to your eyes,
Babe, I swear
That I feel like I'm dead

Don't Love Me No More

You baby don't love me no more
Ya, babe, you don't love me no more
I don't know what to do, really don't know what to do
Nothing lasts in my life, just me and my blues
You baby don't love me no more
Ya babe, you don't love me no more
I was in love with you, I really was in love with you
I gotta move to Chicago. leaving this bad mood
You baby don't love me no more
Ya babe, you don't love me no more
I'm worried about your mind, really worried about your mind
You love mr. Drunkard, babe, are you blind?
You baby don't love me no more
Now babe I don't love you no more
Do you think I'm mad? Yes, babe I'm really mad
I'm going to find a real woman that never makes me sad
You baby don't love me no more
Ya babe, you don't love me no more...

Blues In My Veins
03:43

I travelled a long way
I've been a rolling stone
I travelled a long way
I've been a rolling stone
I came back home
Nothing was the same
Mama and Papa, they said,
"You look a little strange"
Mama and Papa, they said,
"You look a little strange"
My friends told me I've changed
I got the Blues in my veins
I can stay here, but not for long
This is another place where I don't belong
Same old blood, but different plans
How can I be foreign in my homeland?
I sang as long as I could
'Til my throat hurt
I sang as long as I could
'Til my throat hurt
You know, there's nothing worse
Than being misunderstood
I picked up my suitcase
And I put my past behind
I picked up my suitcase
And I put my past behind
I gotta go, never mind,
Where none knows my name
(where I can be appreciated)
I can stay here, but not for long
This is another place where I don't belong
Same old blood, but different plans
How can I be foreign in my homeland?
Mama and Papa, they said,
"You look a little strange"
Mama and Papa, they said,
"You look a little strange"
My friends told me I've changed
I got the Blues in my veins
My friends told me I've changed
I got the Blues in my veins
My friends told me I've changed

Goin' To Propose
04:25
|
|||
|
Here I am, drinkin' and doing my thing
Something strikes me, I can feel her eyes on me
I think this time, I suppose
That I'm going to propose
She smiles at me, man, and I, I let it go (I could be wrong)
She does it again, and I, I take it slow
But the third time, I suppose
That I'm going to propose
I get close, she says she loves my blues (what?)
I want to know more, and my mind I'm goin' to lose
I think this time, I suppose
That I'm going to propose
She smokes her cigarette, she tells me about her life
I keep on drinkin' beer after beer, she seems to be more and more mine I think this time, I suppose,
That I'm going, babe, to propose
Icy blue eyes, face of an angel, it's all I can think about
I need to focus, alcohol doesn't help me, I just can't figure it out
I think this time, I suppose,
That I'm going to propose
One last beer and then, blackout!
Not one word from my mouth
I'm so drunk, I can hardly stand,
She leaves me for another man
I think this time, I suppose,
I will come back home all alone
I think this time, I think this time,
I think this time, I think this time
I will come back home all alone
I think this time, I think this time
I will come back home all alone (as always)

Evil Neighbor
06:51

|
I got an evil neighbor, Lord, have mercy on my soul
I'm going to take my pistol, and shoot that great asshole
He said "You stole my land, give me back what is mine"
He said "You stole my land, give me back what is mine"
I don't know what you're talking about, I got nothing to hide
I said, I tried to be gentle, dealt with you peacefully
I said, I tried to be gentle, dealt with you peacefully
You wouldn't listen to reason, so it's time for my gun to speak
When he sees me down the street, he spits on the ground
When he sees me down the street, he spits on the ground
I'm going to bury his body where he will never be found
He's snooty and full of himself surrounded by his wealth
There is a circle tailor-made for him, down in hell
I got an evil neighbor, Lord have mercy on my soul
I'm gonna take my pistol, and shoot that great asshole
I'm upset from seven to eleven, and all night long
I'm upset from seven to eleven, and all night long
But I can't retrace my steps, I need to be strong
He sent me some troublemakers, he wanted to scare me, man
I said, he sent me some troublemakers, he wanted to scare me, man
I just kick'em out, and now I come to break his legs
You know better than me, woman, I'm not a man of sin
I said, You know better than me, woman, I'm not a man of sin Remember me for who I was, I never meant to be so mean
He's snooty and full of himself surrounded by his wealth
There is a circle tailor-made for him, down in hell
I got an evil neighbor, Lord have mercy on my soul
I'm gonna take my pistol, and shoot that great asshole
I said, I can't leave my home, I'm not going anywhere
I said, I can't leave my home, I'm not going anywhere
I'm going to shoot you neighbor, and bring all of this to the end

Pair Of Shoes
04:24
|

|
I bought a pair of new shoes
Baby, I'm working hard
I'm trying to go far
Everything you say, it's an abuse
But I keep my rage inside,
It's fuel for my mind
Somebody told me, somebody told me that
Ain't no pair of shoes that makes me a bluesman
I can't believe, can't believe I was so wrong
I can't believe, can't believe I was so wrong
I must shout my mouth, and forget to get along
Somebody told me, somebody told me that
I'm too young to speak, speak and think like a man
I can't believe, can't believe I was so wrong
I can't believe, can't believe I was so wrong
I must shout my mouth and hold my tongue
I bought a pair of new shoes
Baby, I'm working hard
I'm trying to go far
Everything you say, It's an abuse
But I keep my rage inside,
It's fuel for my mind
Somebody told me, somebody told me that
My dreams look like castles made of sand
I can't believe, can't believe I was so wrong
I can't believe, can't believe I was so wrong
I must shout my mouth, leave my dreams and come back home
I want to tell you what is crossing my mind
Save your breath, man, you're wasting your time
I can't believe, are you trying to beat me down?
I can't believe, are you trying to beat me down?
I trusted you, but you're just a clown
You spoke behind my back, are you afraid to face me down?
Get out of my way, don't show your face around
I bought a pair of new shoes
Baby, I'm working hard
I'm trying to go far
Everything you say, It's an abuse
But I keep my rage inside,
It's fuel for my mind
Fuel for my mind
Fuel for my mind
Fuel for my mind
Fuel for my mind
Fuel for my mind
Fuel for my mind!

Release Your Soul
03:47
|

|
Forget about your life, about you and me
About was has been and what would be
Forget your money, all your possessions
You can't buy what is out of your comprehension
You're a part of the whole
Get rid of everything, release your soul
Forget the anger, pride and jealousy
Forget about these bad emotions you don't need
Forget the times you get hurt
All your mistakes, what you gave, what you deserve
You're a part of the whole
Get rid of everything, release your soul
There's no up and down after the End
No judgement day to attend
No up and down after the End
No judgement day to attend
No up and down after the End
No judgement day to attend
Your mind is clean, your heart beats strong
You're in balance with the whole word
Ain't got no fear, no hesitation
Go on your way, turn your words into action.
You're a part of the whole
Get rid of everything, release your soul
There's no up and down after the End
No judgement day to attend
No up and down after the End
No judgement day to attend
No up and down after the End
No judgement day to attend
No up and down after the End
No judgement day to attend

What Else Can I Do?
03:54
|

|
Oh Lord, I fell in love
She's so pretty, she's so smart
Everytime she looks at me
I can't stand on my feet
She's the woman, she's the woman right for me
She said "Do you want my heart?
You've got to buy me a Cadillac"
I said "For the love of you, What else can I do?"
Lord, the woman of my life
She's so lovely, she's so kind
She wrote a very long, long list
Everything she wrote, she wished
She's the woman, she's the woman right for me
She said "I'll be your girl,
When you become a millionaire"
I said "For the love of you, What else can I do?"
I bought everything she needs
With all the money of my salary
But she's not happy at all
She wants one last thing much more
She's my woman, Lord, she's my woman, she's my love
She said "I'll only stay with you
If you stop playing blues"
I said "For the love of you,
What?"
Lord, the woman of my dreams
She's so evil, she's so mean,
It looks like a nightmare, you know?
Everything is going wrong
She's not my woman, Lord, she's not my woman anymore
I said "Bye bye, mon cheri,
I'm not your slave, now I'm free"
I said "For the love of blues,
What else can I do?"

Traveller Blues
06:38

|
I'm a traveller, but there's no place where I can rest
I'm a traveller, ain't no place where I can rest
I'll never find my poor lost soul
Even if I do my best
I left my roots, looking for a place I can call home
I left my roots, looking for a place I can call home
There's no future for me here, babe
I got to go, come back no more
Walking all day long, loneliness is my only friend
Walking all day long, loneliness is my only friend
I'm alone, I know, and so,
I just keep on walking 'til I am
Years pass by, waiting for no one, like rising sun every day goes down
Years pass by, waiting for no one, like rising sun every day goes down
How long I have to wait to find a woman
Can really love me in this town?
I got a hole in my heart, the devil said, he's always there
I got a hole in my heart, the devil said, he's always there
His voice comes by my guitar
His soul rests in my hand
I'm a traveller, ain't no place where I can rest
I'm a traveller, ain't no place where I can rest
I'll never find my poor lost soul
Even if I do my best

Unlucky In Love
05:29
|

I'm unlucky in love
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
Hey, girl from the past, let's have fun tonight
Nothing special, don't worry, I need a break from my life
I don't know nothing about you, but you give me some good vibes
Let's try, no strings, no duties, no worries babe, and no lies
I'm unlucky in love
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
'Cause the think I want the most
It's to be found, but now I'm lost,
I'm unlucky in love, I'm unlucky in love
Could be the strength of your gaze, or maybe the wine
But I know, we're meant for each other, everything is goin' so fine
But hey, surprise! She names some guy, bad sign
Between laughs and jokes I come at the end of the line
I'm unlucky in love
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
'Cause the night I spent with you was fine
And now you're tellin' me there's another guy?
I'm unlucky in love
I can't last so long I can't be so strong
Every word you say gets me closer to fallin' for you
And I can't afford me feeling blue
I'm unlucky in love,
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
Ain't no aces up my sleeve, no tricks in my pack
This is the grim reality, let me take a step back
You're not so perfect for me, you'll surely be my wreck
Our future together looks like your eyes, deeply black
I'm unlucky in love
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
'Cause every feeling in my heart born
Gets out of my control
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
I can't last so long I can't be so strong
Every word you say gets me closer to fallin' for you
And I can't afford me feeling blue
I'm unlucky in love
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
'Cause the think I want the most
It's to be found, but now I'm lost,
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
'Cause the night I spent with you was fine
And now you're tellin' me there's another guy?
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
'Cause every feeling in my heart born
Gets out of my control
I'm unlucky in love, unlucky in love
'Cause even if I had taken it slow
You've been for me a heavy blow
