Soul Of A Man

I'm gonna ask a question, please answer if you can
If any you people gonna tell me
What is the soul of man? What is the soul of a man?
Won't somebody tell me, answer if you can!

Won't somebody tell me
What is the soul of a man
What is the soul of a man?
I've travelled in different countries
I've travelled foreign lands
I've found nobody could tell me
What is the soul of a man
What is the soul of a man

I saw a crowd stand talking, I just came up in time
The teachers and the doctors and the lawyers
Say a man ain't nothing but his mind
A man ain't nothing but his mind
Won't somebody tell me, answer if you can!
Won't somebody tell me
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 ain't nothing but a burning light
It ain't nothing but a burning light

Well Christ stood in the temple
The people stood amazed
He was showing the doctors and the lawyers
How to raise a body from the grave
How to raise a body from the grave

Won't somebody tell me, answer if you can!
Won't somebody tell me
What is the soul of a man
What is the soul of a man?
