Soul of a Man Songtext

Soul of a Man Songtext
I′m bad news, a
Black and blue-ser
Who's a loser
A merry-go-round spiraling down
I′m all used up
Chafed and chewed-up
Who's just screwed up
The same old Charlie hitting the ground
'Cause I′ll never be the
Soul of a man, noble and wise
Like the soul of a man
Who lifted me high
Like the soul of a man
Heroic and true
Like the soul of man
That I looked up to
What else could I do?
Stupid hubris
No excuses
I blew my fuses
I guess I′m a ruse in my father's shoes
Not amusing, no confusing
This streak of losing
Totally brutal and useless, too
How can I be the soul of a man
Noble and wise
Like the soul of a man
Who lifted me high
Like the soul of a man
Heroic and true
Like the soul of a man
That I looked up to
What else could I
Just when I′m reaching for that rung at the top
I'm that broken heel
Unsteady and ready
Ready to drop
When will I be the
Soul of a man
Noble and wise
Like the soul of a man
Who lifted me high
Soul of a man
Heroic and true
Like the soul of a man
That I looked up to
What else could I do? (Soul of a man)
I′ll never be
No I'll never be
I have gone and let you down
Oh, soul, soul of a man
Here comes that familiar sound
Same old Charlie hitting the ground
Black and blue-ser
Who's a loser
A merry-go-round spiraling down
I′m all used up
Chafed and chewed-up
Who's just screwed up
The same old Charlie hitting the ground
'Cause I′ll never be the
Soul of a man, noble and wise
Like the soul of a man
Who lifted me high
Like the soul of a man
Heroic and true
Like the soul of man
That I looked up to
What else could I do?
Stupid hubris
No excuses
I blew my fuses
I guess I′m a ruse in my father's shoes
Not amusing, no confusing
This streak of losing
Totally brutal and useless, too
How can I be the soul of a man
Noble and wise
Like the soul of a man
Who lifted me high
Like the soul of a man
Heroic and true
Like the soul of a man
That I looked up to
What else could I
Just when I′m reaching for that rung at the top
I'm that broken heel
Unsteady and ready
Ready to drop
When will I be the
Soul of a man
Noble and wise
Like the soul of a man
Who lifted me high
Soul of a man
Heroic and true
Like the soul of a man
That I looked up to
What else could I do? (Soul of a man)
I′ll never be
No I'll never be
I have gone and let you down
Oh, soul, soul of a man
Here comes that familiar sound
Same old Charlie hitting the ground
