"Ain't For Sale" lyrics

There's a snake who lies and waits
And his prey is a praying man
Who lies awake with the what to do's
And the taunting you with a taste of that forbidden fruit
Every day's a day to beat the one before
But temptation's knocking at the door
It's 3 am, I ain't sleeping again
I'm pleading with God
To fight off what I can't fend
Oh no, I'll be damned if that ole devil's waiting for me for to fail
But this soul of mine it ain't for sale

Dollar signs and dotted lines
Is it worth losing that peace of mind
For the fancy things
Are they what they seem
When you can't cut those puppet strings
Is it really how it oughta be?
It's 3 am, I ain't sleeping again
Pleading with God to fight off what I can't fend
Oh Lord I'll be damned if that ole devil's waiting for me for to fail
But this soul of mine it ain't for sale

Yeah go and get behind Satan in the shadow of the valley
Burdened, but I'm certain bout that ole rod and staff that comforts me
A company of angels fightin' tooth and nail again
Lord forgive me, give me grace and get me through the night

It's 3 am, I ain't sleeping again
Pleading with God to fight off what I can't fend
Oh, no I'll be damned if that ole devil's waiting for me for to fail
But soul of mine it ain't for sale
Oh this soul of mine it ain't for sale
Nah this soul of mine it ain't for sale
