Who Will Save Your Soul (Live at The Song) Lyrics

[Verse 1]

People livin' their lives for you on TV

They say they're better than you and you agree

She says, "Hold my calls from behind those cold brick walls"

Says, "Come here boy, there's nothing for free"

Another doctor's bill, a lawyer's bill, another cute cheap thrill

You know you love him if you put him in your will

[Chorus]

But who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers?

Who, who will save your soul after all those lies you told, boy?

And who will save your soul if you won't save your own?

La-la, ah-ye-ve-va-da, oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]

We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss 'em

And the cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue, oh

Another day, another dollar, another war

Another tower went up where the homeless had their homes

So we pray to as many different Gods as there are flowers

But we call religion our friend

We are so worried about saving our souls

Afraid that God will take His toll that we forget to begin, but

[Chorus]

Who will save your soul when it comes to the babies?

And who, who will save your soul after all those lies you told? Uh

Who will save your soul if you won't save your own?

La-la, ah-ye-ve-va-da, oh-oh-oh[Verse 3]

Now some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill

You got so called social security but it don't pay your bills

'Cause there are addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay

So you bargain with the Devil, say you're okay today, say

That you love them, take their money and run

Say it's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those things

Those strings, those flings, those strings

Those flings, those strings, those flings, those strings you've got to cut

So get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts

[Chorus]

Who will save-ave your soul when it comes to the memories?

And oh, hey, yeah, who will save your souls after those lies that you told, boy?

And who will save-ave, save your souls if you won't save your own?

Hey, oh, hey, oh, hey, oh, hey, oh, hey, hey, oh
