Saved Lyrics - Elvis Presley

(Words & music by Leiber - Stoller) 

I wanna soothe my my heart, I wanna ease my mind 

I wanna move my shoes and see what I can find 

I wanna stand up tall and open up my eyes 

I wanna reach out my hand until I touch the skies 

I was a poor lost lamb in a deep dark hole 

But now I've found that light I'm gonna save my soul 

I used to drink, I used to smoke 

I used to smoke, drink and dance the hoochy-coo 

I used to smoke and drink, smoke and drink and dance the hoochy-coo 

Oh yeh! And now I'm standing on thius corner praying for me and you 

I-I-I That's why I'm saved I'm saved 

People let me tell you 'bout kingdom come 

You know I'm saved I'm saved 

Well I can preach until you're deaf and dumb 

I'm in that soul saving army beating on that big bass drum

I used to cuss, I used to fuss 

I used to fuss, cuss, worry all night long 

I used to cuss and fuss, cuss and fuss, 

Cuss and fuss and worry all night long 

Well now I'm standing on this corner, I know right from wrong 

I-I-I That's why I'm saved I'm saved 

People let me tell you 'bout kingdom come 

You know I'm saved I'm saved 

Well I can preach until you're deaf and dumb 

I'm in that soul saving army beating on that big bass drum 

I used to lie, I used to cheat 

I used to lie, cheat, step on? people's feet 

I used to lie and cheat, lie and cheat and step on? people's feet 

Well now I'm steppin' on to glory salvation in my beat
