Soul Of A Man by Blind Willie Johnson Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1930

[Chorus]
Well, I want somebody tell me, answer if you can!
'Want somebody tell me, just what is the soul of a man?

I'm going to ask the question, answer if you can
If anybody surely can tell me, what is the soul of a man?

[Chorus]
Well, I want somebody tell me, answer if you can!
I Want somebody tell me, just what is the soul of a man?

I've traveled in different countries, I've traveled in foreign lands
I've found nobody could tell me, just what about the soul of a man

[Chorus]
Well, I want somebody tell me, answer if you can!
I Want somebody tell me, just what is the soul of a man?

I saw a crowd stand talking, I came up in time
Were teaching the lawyers, the doctors, that a man ain't nothing but his mind
[Chorus] x2
Well, I want somebody tell me, answer if you can!
I Want somebody tell me, just what is the soul of a man?


I reads the bible often, I tries to read it right
As far as I could understand, a man is more than his mind

[Chorus]
God, I want somebody tell me, answer if you can!
I Want somebody tell me, just what is the soul of a man?

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

[Chorus] x2
Well, I want somebody tell me, answer if you can!
'Want somebody tell me, just what is the soul of a man?
