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?       (CHORUS:)    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       (Chorus)       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       (Chorus)       I read the Bible often    I try to read it right    As far as I can understand    It's nothing but a burning light       (Chorus)       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       (Chorus)
