The Soul of a Man

Well won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
Won't somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

I'm going to ask the question, please answer if you can
If anybody surely can tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

Well won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

I traveled different countries, I've traveled in foreign lands
I've found nobody could tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

Well won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

I saw a crowd stand talking, I just came up in time
Was teachin' the doctor and the lawyer,
Say a man ain't nothing but his mind

Well won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

God won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

I read the bible often, I tries to read it right
And far as I could understand, nothin' but a burnin' light

Well won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

When Christ sat in the temple, the people all stood amazed
Was teaching the lawyers and the Doctors how to raise a man from the grave

Well won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man

Well won't somebody tell me, answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me, just what is The Soul Of A Man
