When I was a young boy

My daddy sat me down

He said Son don't you never go

To the dark side of town

I'm talking downtown Memphis

See that's where the black folk play

And I said Yes sir daddy

And then I snuck down anyway

See never was taught to read none

And no never taught to write

The only thing my daddy taught

Was a white should stay with white

But I heard it through the alleys

It floated on the breeze

And burst out through the doorways

And it knocked me to my knees

It broke down all my senses

Yet made me feel so whole

See I was lost until I found

The music of my soul

The music of my soul

Then one day my Daddy died

And we laid him in his grave

And my mamma she cried and cried and cried

And prayed that he'd be saved

But all I felt was pity

For he never understood

How could people be so bad

That made me feel so good

It whipped right through my body

It grabbed me by my heart

It shot up from my fingertips

And tore me right apart

It broke down all my senses

Yet made me feel so whole

And I will love it till the day I die

The music of my soul

It broke down all my senses

Yet made me feel so whole

See I was lost until I found

I was deaf until I heard

I'll make this world come around to

The music of my soul

The music of my soul
