You Only Have Your Soul - Gillian Welch

Oh my darling, pal of mine

Be careful what you sign

Be careful what you sign on the line

Give them silver and your gold

If you only have your soul

You only have your soul for all time

Please don’t play the devil’s game

To trick him out of fame

To trick him out of fame if you lose

'Cause he’s smarter than you

Unblinking and untrue

Unblinking and untrue all his days

Oh my darling, pal of mine

Be careful what you sign

Be careful what you sign on the line

Give them silver and your gold

If you only have your soul

You only have your soul for all time
