Lyrics (1993)[]
Pasqually: Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hiiii ho, YEAH!!!
Comin' to you on a dusty road
Good music, I got a truckload
And when you hear it, you got something
Don't worry, cause I'm coming
All: I'm a soul man (Yeah!)
I'm a soul man (Oh!)
I'm a soul man (Yes!)
I'm a soul man
Pasqually: I got what I got, the hard way
I'll play it better each and every day
So boys and girls, now don't you fret, no
'Cause you ain't seen nothing yet
All: I'm a soul man (Yeah!)
I'm a soul man (Oh!)
I'm a soul man (Yeaaaaaaah!)
I'm a soul man
Pasqually: I was brought up on a side street
Learned how to love before I could eat
I was educated here at Chuck E. Cheese
When I start playin', all I do is please
All: I'm a soul man (Ho!)
I'm a soul man (Yeah!)
I'm a soul man (Ha!)
I'm a soul man
Pasqually: I would grab a rope
And I'll pull you in
I'll give it hope
And be your only best friend
Yeah!
Munch: Yeah!
Pasqually: Yeah!
Munch: Yeah!
Now I wanna tell you folks a little somethin' about soul...
Jasper: You mean like, fillet of soul?
Munch: No, that sounds fishy!
Helen: Not even the sole of a shoe?
Munch: Sorry, you're on the wrong foot, too! I'm talkin' about the kind of soul you feel inside when you're with the friends you love!
Jasper: Like mine!
All: (Hey!) I'm a soul man (Yeaaaaah!)
I'm a soul man (Yes, yes!)
I'm a soul man (Hey!)
I'm a soul man (Ha, yeah!
I'm a soul man (Pick it up, pick it up, now!)
I'm a soul man
Soul man (Ahhhhh... hey... yeah!)
Lyrics (2003)[]
Chuck E.: (giggles)
Comin' to you on a dusty road
Good lovin', I got a truckload
And when you get it, you got something
So don't worry, cause I'm coming
All: I'm a soul man (giggles)
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
Chuck E.: Got what I got, the hard way
And I'll make it better each and every day
So honey I said, oh, don't you fret
'Cause you ain't seen nothing yet
All: I'm a soul man (Yeah-hah!)
I'm a soul man (Oh, yeah!)

Yeah, (yeah) yeah, (yeah) YOW!
(Guitar solo)
Oh, play it, Jasper!
All: I'm a soul man (Come on, everybody!) (Jasper: Hey!)
I'm a soul man (Helen: Whoo!) (Sing it, now!)

I'm a soul man
Yeah-heh!
