Lyrics
Won't somebody tell me, answer if you can!
Want somebody to tell me, what is the soul of a man
I'm goin' to ask the question, answer if you can
If anybody here can tell me, what is the soul of a man?
I've traveled in different countries, I've traveled in foreign lands
I've found nobody to tell me, what about the soul of a man
I saw a crowd stand talkin', I came up right on time
We're hearin' the lawyer and the
Doctor, say a man ain't nothin' but his mind
I want somebody to tell me, answer if you can!
Want somebody to tell me, what is the soul of a man
I read the bible often, I tried to read it right
As far as I can understand, there ain't nothin' but a barrin' lie
I want somebody to tell me, answer if you can!
I want somebody to tell me, what is the soul of a man
When Christ stood in the temple, the people stood amazed
Was showing the doctors and the
Lawyers, how to raise a body from the grave
Won't somebody tell me, answer if you can!
Want somebody to tell me, what is the soul of a man
Won't somebody tell me, answer if you can!
I want somebody to tell me, tell me what is the soul of a man
