Introduction: Lord Have Mercy On My Soul - Black Oak Arkansas

Now there's somethin' I'd like to talk to you about 
at this particular moment, and that's about the one 
thing that we won't be able to do together. Unless we 
all become as one. And if we all become as one, then 
we can walk thru it together. Now I ain't walked thru 
it all the way yet. But there was a time I walked 
into it, and I had to go into it alone, that's this 
place called the Halls of Karma. Now when you go into 
the Halls of Karma the way I did, I don't know, it 
might have been hallucination, but I think it was 
real. You see I felt the presence of the two energies; 
the positive and the negative; of God and the Devil, 
however you want it. And they were pullin' and 
decidin' and wondering what to do with my soul, and I 
couldn't take this at this moment 'cause I had to come 
back to be with you people to do a thing and I proved 
to 'em, in bargainin' with 'em that I had a thing to 
do for the good of all of us. Out of this bargain, 
the devil, he got my body for the good in his needs 
while I'm here on earth and the Lord, he's got my mind 
for the good of the universe and for the good of man. 
And they both got me in between 'cause they both got 
my soul. So the next time I come up, I want the Lord 
to, Please have Mercy, On My Soul
