Tired Ole Soul

TIRED OLE SOUL

VERSE 1
I was born in a hurricane
Momma told the preacher
Take away his pain

There's a hole in this heart of mine
Where the warmer light
Doesn't dare to shine

CHORUS
I'm a tired, old soul
When you been everywhere
You go nowhere left to go

VERSE 2
I was five when my momma died
Daddy asked the teacher
Have patience with my child

But I was already lost by then
Speaking to the darkness
My only friend

CHORUS

VERSE 3
I was killing by the age of ten
Had to ask the preacher
Wash away my sins

But there's a stain on this soul of mine
No amount of praying
Will save me from my crimes

CHORUS 2
I'm a tired, old soul
When you been everywhere, everywhere
you been everywhere
You go nowhere left to go
Tired old soul
