Deep In My Soul

Lyrics

My heart started singing,
All the things I was feeling.
The words started coming,
But I don’t know from where.
My fingers started picking,
A melody was born.
Another sad story,
Another sad song.
I got it deep in my soul,
I got it deep in my soul,
And I can’t let it go, nall,nall.
I got it deep in my soul,
And it’s coming on strong.
And I can’t let it go.

Behind these songs,
That I sing every night,
Behind these songs,
Is the story of my life.
Behind these songs,
Is a whole lot of pain
A whole lot of love,
And all the joy that is brings.

I got it deep in my soul,
I got it deep in my soul,
And I can’t let it go, nall,nall.
I got it deep in my soul,
And it’s coming on strong.
It won’t leave me alone.

Lord, I never will forget,
How hard it use to be.
After school pickin’ cotton,
Trying to make ends meet.
I never will forget,
How my mother use to cry,
She use to cry her eyes out,
Now I think I know why.

I got it deep in my soul,
I got it deep in my soul,
And I can’t let it go, nall,nall.
I got it deep in my soul,
And it’s coming on strong.
And I can’t let it go, nall nall.
I got it deep in my soul,
It won’t leave me alone,
Cause it’s deep in my soul.

The blues will heal you,
If let it, let it touch you way down,
Way down in your soul.
Let it touch you.

I got it deep in my soul,
And it’s coming on strong.
And I can’t let it go, nall,nall.

I got it deep in my soul,
And I can’t let it go, nall.
