Текст Head East – Brother Jacob

Hey Brother Jacob, I trust you’re well today
You’ve been dealin’ with the devil, and cast your soul away

Ol’ Brother Jacob lived ninety-three years, not a second of it on his knees
He lived in a little wood shanty down the road a little piece

Hey Brother Jacob, I trust you’re well today
You’ve been dealin’ with the Devil, and cast your soul away
The only part that you have to doubt
Is where it says you don’t have to pay
Ol’ Brother Jacob gambled and lost when he sold his soul today

The story came down from the mountain town
Brother Jacob was called away
They say that the Devil came for him
And they swear it to this very day
But then again, there’s another tale that’s told around the town
Says Brother Jacob is still alive and lives down underground

Hey Brother Jacob, I trust you’re well today
You’ve been dealin’ with the Devil, and cast your soul away
The only part that you have to doubt
Is where it says you don’t have to pay
Ol’ Brother Jacob gambled and lost when he sold his soul today

Hey Brother Jacob, I trust you’re well today
You’ve been dealin’ with the Devil, and cast your soul away
The only part that you have to doubt
Is where it says you don’t have to pay
Ol’ Brother Jacob gambled and lost when he sold his soul today

Hey Brother Jacob, I trust you’re well today
You’ve been dealin’ with the Devil, and cast your soul away
The only part that you have to doubt
