Van Morrison - They Sold Me Out lyrics

rate me

Sold me out for a few shekels and divided up my robes

They sold me out

It’s the oldest story that’s ever been told

They sold me out

Didn’t even give it no shred of doubt, no, no

They sold me out

Didn’t even sit down and try to figure it out

They just sold me out

For the few shekels more, they didn’t even think twice

For a few shekels more, another minute in the spotlight

My own people did it to me just ‘cos they could

They sold me out

So beware brother it could happen to you

They sold me out

For the few shekels more, they didn’t even think twice

Just for a few shekels more, another minute of two in the spotlight

My own people did it to me just ‘cos they could

They sold me out

Got to beware brother it just might happen to you

They sold me out

Sold me out for a few shekels and they divided up my robes

They sold me out

It’s the oldest story that’s ever been told

They sold me out

Sold me out for a few shekels and divided out my robes

They sold me out

It’s the oldest story that’s ever been known

They sold me out

They sold me out

They sold me out

They sold me out
