I got a travelin' bone
On the day I was born
I left my only home
Find what I'm lookin' for
They say the world must be round
So I sailed the seven seas
But this searchin' for a brand new world
Is gettin' the best of me
I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime
(Sell my soul to the devil for a dime)
I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime
(Sell my soul to the devil)
I worked me twenty-five years
On that assembly line
Until they finally made the gear
Took away that job of mine
Now I'm out here on this corner
I got holes in both my shoes
I got nowhere to turn
I got nothin' to lose
Except these blues
I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime
(Sell my soul to the devil for a dime)
I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime
(Sell my soul to the devil for a dime)

I been out on this boulevard
Since 1969
Findin' work was so hard
Thought about steppin' over the line
Now I know someday my ticket
My ticket number got to win
But a cold wind is blowin'
Time to pack up my coat again
It's such a sin
I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime
(Sell my soul to the devil for a dime)
I could sell my soul to the devil for a dime
(Sell my soul to the devil for a dime)

Sell my soul to the devil for a dime
Sell my soul to the devil for a dime
Sell my soul to the devil for a dime
