Eric Burdon - Soul of a Man

Soul of a Man

Well I want somebody to tell me
Answer if you can!
Well I want somebody to tell me,
Just what is the soul of a man
I'm going to ask the question
Answer if you can
Can anybody out there can tell me
Just what is the soul of a man

I traveled to different countries
I traveled to foreign lands
I've found nobody to tell me
Just what is the soul of a man

Well I want somebody to 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 came up right on time
I heard the doctor and the lawyer
Say a man ain't nothing but his mind

I want somebody to tell me
Answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me
Just what is the soul of a man
What is the soul of a man

I read the bible often
I try to read it right
As far as I can understand
It's nothing but a burning light

Well I want somebody to tell me
Answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me
Just what is the soul of a man

I want somebody to tell me
Answer if you can
I want somebody to tell me
Just what is the soul of a man

I'm going to ask the question
Answer if you can
Can anybody out there can tell me
Just what is the soul of a man
What is the soul of a man

(Blind Willie Johnson)
