Blind Willie Johnson- Soul of A Man lyrics
91 Nothing But A Burning Light
Soul Of A Man (3:52)
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)
("Soul of a Man" was learned from a 1930 recording by Blind Willie Johnson)
