A Little Soul

Hey man

How come you treat your woman so bad?

That's not the way you do it, no, no, no

You shouldn't do it like that

I could show you how to do it right

I used to practice every night on my wife

Now she's gone, yeah, she's gone

You see, your mother and me

We never got along that well, you see

I'd love to help you

But everybody's telling me

You look like me, but please don't turn out like me

You look like me, but you're not like me, I know

I had one, two, three, four shots of happiness

I look like a big man

But I, I only got a little soul

I only got a little soul

Yeah, I wish I could be an example

Wish I could say I stood up for you

And fought for what was right but I never did

I just wore my trench coat

And stayed out every single night

You think I'm joking?

Try me, try me, come on, try me tonight

I did what was wrong, though I knew what was right

I've got no wisdom that I want to pass on

Just don't hang 'round here, no

I'm telling you son, you don't wanna know me

Oh, it's just what everybody's telling me

And everybody's telling me

You look like me, but please don't turn into me

You look like me, but you're not like me, I hope

I have run away from the one thing that I ever made

You look like me

Now, I only wish I could show you

You look like me

Wish I could show a little soul

Wish I could show a little soul

Wish I could show a little soul

Wish I could show a little soul
