lyrics

This is the saddest song that you ever heard
It’s about a man who sold his tiny world
It’s about greed
It’s about sin
It’s about lust
It’s about a man who sold his lover’s trust

Said I’ll go to school and I’ll make me a million dollars
Then I made that “million dollars” and I spent it all
I bought a car
And I bought a girl
And I bought a home
I bought a life but I still felt so alone

And I cried
Got this “million dollars”
Didn’t buy joy for me
I make my money but there’s something I don’t see
And God said
NOTHING
No, He didn’t respond to me
He just gave me His shoulder and left me to be

This is the saddest song that you ever heard
It’s about a man who sold his tiny world
It’s about greed
It’s about sin
It’s about lust
It’s about a man who sold his lover’s trust

I had a friend whose name was Jose
For a diamond ring
I sold his sole away
Jose was the greatest friend I ever had
The deed I done, made me sick and drove me mad
And Oh God
Three days later I had lost that diamond ring
Hey Hey Hey
Deep in my bones, I felt Satan’s sting
And I cried
Oh Lord why you give this ring to me?
Hey Hey Hey
But God had nothing to do with it
It was all me and now
Hey Hey Hey
I’m singing the saddest song that you ever heard
Hey Hey Hey
It’s about a man who sold his tiny world
Hey Hey Hey
It’s about greed
It’s about sin
It’s about lust
Hey Hey Hey
It’s about a man who sold his lover’s trust
