and the fish won't bite
you need a little bit o' soul
to put you right
you gotta make like you
wanna kneel and pray
and then a little bit o' soul
will come your way

Now when your girl has gone
and you're broke in two
you need a little bit o' soul
to see you through
you gotta raise the roof
with your rock and roll
you'll get a lot more kicks
with a little bit o' soul

And if your party falls
'cause there's nobody groovin'
you need a little bit o' soul and
it really starts movin', yeah!

And when you're in a mess
and you feel like cryin'
just remember this little
song of mine
and as you walk through ilfe
tryin' to reach your goal
just remember what I say about
a little bit o' soul

And if your party falls
'cause there's nobody groovin'
a little bit o' soul and
it really starts movin', yeah!

A little bit o' soul
A little bit o' soul
A little bit o' soul
A little bit o' soul
