Now when you're feelin' low 
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 
And when you raise the roof 
With you 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' 
A little bit o' soul and 
It really starts movin', yeah! 
 
Now when you're in a mess 
And you feel like cryin' 
Just remember this little 
Song of mine 
And as you walk through life 
Tryin' to reach your goal 
Remember what I say 'bout 
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
