Oh My Soul

 

Oh my Soul do you really really want me to sing?

When I open up my mouth and let it really soar

It’s a little bit better than iron ore, it’s like gold

 

I can sing a sky of silver ribbons any time you like

A constellation of notes, a fleet of bobbing boats

I can sing it sweet and baby, I can sing it oh so fine

Like the glowing moon, I like to let it shine

And if you’re lookin’ for a way to fix a heart that’s torn

I’m gonna blow my horn

 

Oh my Soul do you really really want me to sing?

I got a little voice, can you fit it in your purse

I got a voice, I’m gonna sing a new universe, I got soul

 

How you gonna hold a river in a plastic cup?

It keeps filling up, that little Dixie cup

How you gonna keep me running in a little ratty race

I got a better pace, and did you happen to see the stars on my face

And if you’re lookin’ for a way to be reborn

Better blow your horn

 

Oh my Soul do you really really want us to sing?

Oh my Soul does it really really really mean everything?

 

Look up to the sky and like a star you’ll see us shining there

Like a radiant sun, each and every one

Making a parade like universal marching band

Beauty on every hand, like the grains of sand

And if you’re looking for a way to sing your song

You can’t get it wrong, you gotta sing along!
