I Believe To My Soul

(album: The Genius Sings The Blues - 1961)

One of these days, and it won't be long,
You're gonna look for me and I'll be gone
'Cause I believe (I believe, yes I believe)

I say I believe right now (I believe, yes I believe)
Well I believe to my soul now,
You're trying to make a fool of me (I believe it, I believe it)
Well you're going 'round here with your head so hard,
I think I'm gonna have to use my rod
'Cause I believe (I believe, yes I believe)

I say I believe right now (I believe, yes I believe)
Well I believe to my soul now
You're trying to make a fool of me (I believe it, I believe it)
Last night you were dreaming and I heard you say
"Oh, Johnny" when you know my name is Ray
That's why I believe right now(I believe, yes I believe)

I say I believe right now (I believe, yes I believe)
Well I believe to my soul now
You're trying to make a fool of me (I believe it)
