Don't Try To Save My Soul

Don't Try To Save My Soul Lyrics

I didn't know what time it was
The moment I was born
I only knew the time was right
On that October morn
I landed here without a plan
I opened up my eyes
And pretty soon I figured out
I'd won the booby prize

Don't try to save my soul
Don't try to save my soul
I only did what I had to do
Don't try to save my soul

What is the word I'm looking for?
One everybody knows?
Up to now it's eluded me
Was never even close
I don't know if it exists
I know it can't be bought
And when I got a taste of it
It wasn't what I thought

Don't try to save my soul
Don't try to save my soul
I only did what I had to do
Don't try to save my soul
I spent my life on cruise control
Don't try to save my soul
I'm going deeper down the rabbit hole
Don't try to save my soul

There is a place called happiness
They said, "Go seek it, boy"
They didn't tell me where to look
To find the real McCoy
I stumbled round for nigh on forty years
To work out who I am
Now I ain't gonna change for anyone
'Cause I don't give a damn

Don't try to save my soul
Don't try to save my soul
I only did what I had to do
Don't try to save my soul
Don't try to topple my totem pole
Don't try to save my soul
Now I'm a slave for rock and roll
So you can't save my soul

You can't save my soul
You can't save my soul
Don't try
Don't try (You can't save my soul)
Don't try (You can't save my soul)
No, no, you can't (You can't save my soul)
You can't (You can't save my soul)
You can't (You can't save my soul)
You can't save my soul (You can't save my soul)
You can't save my soul (You can't save my soul)
You can't save my soul
