Well, do you say 
Nobody hears me when I pray. 
And if you say 
I just don't care to live past what's today. 
And if you say 
Oh, brother last night I prayed
Your preacher isn't preaching at home. 

And if you say 
Nobody hears me when I cry. 
And if you say
Well I just don't understand why. 
And if you say 
I just can't take it, I'm saying goodbye. 

When you're walking 
It's a heavy, heavy load. 
To make the load lighter 
Sing

Sold my soul
At the bottom of the hill.
The demons there
They shaved my hair

And made me take their pills.
My cold soul 
Is at the bottom of the hill.
Oh I should have walked on by

Let her cry
And only drank my fill.

Some men they say 
There is more to us than Is known. 
Some ladies say 
Well there's some things we're not shown. 

All people say 
You're stepping on our homes. 
And your footprints 
Endeavors, never told. 
But still we'll sing. 

Sold my soul 
At the bottom of the hill. 
The demons there 
They shaved my hair 

And made me take their pills. 
My cold soul 
Is at the bottom of the hill. 
Oh I should have walked on by 

Let her cry 
And only drank my fill.
