Irma Thomas - Soul of a Man lyrics

Won't somebody tell me Answer if you can Won't somebody tell me Tell me what is the soul of a man? I'm going to ask the question Please answer if you can Is there anybody's children can tell me What is the soul of a man? Won't somebody tell me Answer if you can Won't somebody tell me Tell me what is the soul of a man? I've travelled different countries Travelled to the furthest lands Couldn't find nobody could tell me What is the soul of a man Won't somebody tell me Answer if you can Won't somebody tell me Tell me what is the soul of a man? I saw a crowd stand talking I just came up in time Was teaching the lawyers and the doctors That a man ain't nothing but his mind Won't somebody tell me Answer if you can Won't somebody tell me Tell me 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 Won't somebody tell me Answer if you can Won't somebody tell me Tell me what is the soul of a man? When Christ taught in the temple The people all stood amazed Was teaching the lawyers and the doctors How to raise a man from the grave Won't somebody tell me Answer if you can Won't somebody tell me Tell me what is the soul of a man?
