Lyrics A Lot of Soul - Donny Hathaway

A Lot of Soul

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
I’d go hmm hmm with feeling
I’d say hmm with soul
I’d do hmm hmm with meaning
yes I sang my songs of life with a lot of soul
I never was great at words so fancy
but Lord you know I loved 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
I’d go hmm with feeling
I’d say hmm with soul
I’d do hmm with meaning
but didn’t I love that woman with a lot of soul
When I leave this life I will be forgotten
cause I never made big tracks upon it’s roads
The things I’ve done will never last forever
but didn’t I do them all with a lot of soul
I’d go hmm with feeling
I’d go hmm with soul
I’d say hmm with meaning
and God will say there’s a man with a lot of soul
I’d go hmm with feeling
I’d do hmm with soul
I’d do hmm with meaning
and God will say there’s a man with a lot of soul
I’d go hmm with feeling
I’d say hmm with soul
I’d do hmm with meaning
and God will say there’s a man with a lot of soul
