Il testo della The soul of a man

I'm bad news, a black and blues-er
Who's a loser, a merry-go-round spiraling down
I'm all used up i'm, chaffed 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 a man i looked up to
What else could i do

Stupid hubris, no excuses
I blew my fuses, i guess i'm just a ruse in my fathers 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
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, 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

I'll never be, no i'll never be
I have gone and let you down
Whoa, soul, soul of a man
Here comes that familiar sound
Same old charlie hitting the ground
