Lyrics
Spiritual Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I heard about a man, walkin' on the water
He had hope in his eyes
He didn't wear a crown or have any money
He didn't have any lies
He had holes in his pockets
He had holes in his hands
He looked like an outlaw talkin' to his lover
He was a spiritual man
I wanna be a prince, not a king or a warrior
I wanna have a special light in my eyes
Wanna climb up a mountain, find a tree of wisdom
I wanna feel good when I cry
And maybe someday I could be a teacher
I want that karma when you touch my hand
I'll walk through the streets,
Talking to the homeless in winter
I wanna be a spiritual man, yeah
I heard about a man who was born in the desert
He rode for days and nights across the sand
And one day, he came upon an angel
The angel said, "Hey you, you're gonna be a spiritual man!"
Instrumental Break
Last night I saw a man walkin' toward a club in Harlem
He had a black case in his hands
Went through the back door and pulled out his gold companion
He closed his eyes and played all night like a self-taught spiritual man
