Sam & Dave – Soul Man lyrics
Coming to you, on a dusty road
Good loving, I got a truck load
And when you get it, you got something
So don't worry, 'cause I'm coming
{ deep backup }
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man))
Got what I got, the hard way
And I'll make better, each and every day
So honey, don't you fret
'cause you ain't seen nothing yet
{ deep backup }
I'm a ((soul man)), ow!
I'm a ((soul man)), play it Steve!
I'm a ((soul man)), ow!
I'm a ((soul man)), huh! Listen!
I was brought up, on a side street
Learned how to love, before I could eat
I was educated, from good stock
When I start loving I just can't stop
{ deep backup }
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man)), huh!
Well grab the rope, and I'll pull you in
Give you hope, and be your only boyfriend ya (ya) ya (ya) help!
{ intro licks, modulate }
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man))
You're a ((soul man)) huh!
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man))
I'm a ((soul man)) huh hu
