A Lot of Soul Songtext
von Bobby Bare

I never was great at pickin′ cotton
But Lord, I always carried all my rows
There were those who could pick it clean or better
But didn't I pick my cotton with a lot of soul

I′d go, hmm-hmm, with feeling
I'd go, hmm-hmm, with soul
I'd say, hmm-hmm, with meaning
Yeah, I sang my songs of life with a lot of soul


I never was great at words so fancy
Oh but my woman knew I loved her so
There were those who could give her more and better
But didn′t I loved that woman with a lot of soul

I′d go, hmm-hmm, with feeling
I'd go, hmm-hmm, with soul
I′d go, hmm-hmm, with meaning
Yeah, Lord, I love that woman with a lot of soul

When I leave this life I'll be forgotten
′Cause I never made big tracks upon its roads
Things I've done will never last forever
But didn′t I do it all with a lot of soul

I'd go, hmm-hmm, with feeling
I'd go, hmm-hmm...
