Salvation

Living on the highway
I kiss the open road
Going down to L.A.
To try to find my soul

I left it in the Badlands
Many years ago
Sold it to an old man
For a pot of gold

What I need…
What I need…is

Some sweet salvation
A little revelation
A piece of information
To make a connection

I had to find an answer
I had to find a way
I took it to the devil
But he turned and walked away

So I looked up to the heavens
Got on my knees and prayed
Looking for salvation
In any given way

What I need…
What I need…is

Some sweet salvation
A little revelation
A piece of information
To make a connection

I never knew why
I never knew how
I couldn't stop myself from going right down
Into the pit of despair
I saw his face
The devil said, "Son, you ain't leaving this place"

I lost my faith
I lost my mind
I was looking for what I could not find
I knew right then
I had to get out
I stood right up and I started to shout

What I need…
What I need…is

Some sweet salvation
A little revelation
A piece of information
To make a connection
