Donny Hathaway
A Lot of Soul
[Verse 1]
I never was great, I guess just average
Lord, I never had the touch that brought me gold
Out of step with life, but I still manage
To sing my song of life with a lot of soul
[Chorus]
And I go uh, uh with feeling
I'd say uh, uh with soul
I'd do uh, uh with meaning
Just a-sing my song of life with a lot of soul
[Verse 2]
I never was great at words so fancy
But Lord, you know I love that woman so
There were those who'd give her more, more and better
But didn't I love that woman with a lot of soul
[Chorus]
And I'd go uh, uh with feeling
I'd say uh, uh with soul
I'd do uh, uh with meaning
But didn't I love woman with a lot of soul
[Bridge]
Yes, yes
[Verse 3]
When I leave this life, I will be forgotten
'Causе I never made big tracks upon this road
Thе things I've done will never last forever
But didn't I do them all with a lot of soul
[Chorus]
And I'd go uh (Uh), uh (Uh) with feeling
I'd do uh, uh with soul
I'd say uh, uh with meaning
And God will say "There's a man with a lot of soul"
I'd go uh (Oh), uh (Oh) with feeling (With feeling)
I'd do uh, uh with soul (Oh, oh-oh)
I'd do uh (Uh), uh (Uh-huh) with meaning
And God will say "There's a man with a lot of soul"
[Outro]
One more time, I'd go uh (Oh), uh (Oh) with feeling (Feeling)
I'd say uh, uh with soul
I'd do uh (Oh), uh (Uh-huh) with meaning (Oh yeah)
And God will say "There's a man with a lot of soul"
