老歌亂談(十五)Jesus is a Soul Man


Rawrence Reynolds

當年我們聽西洋歌曲,當然就是要買唱片,還好那時的翻版唱片不是很貴。有時,我們甚至會為了某一首歌去買一張唱片。而通常,一張唱片有十幾首歌,但喜歡的也不過就是那幾首,所以唱機幾乎都成為手動,也就是用手將唱頭搬來搬去,只聽自己想要聽的歌。

 

有趣的事情來了。有一次,我的哥哥告訴我,說有的歌因為是在唱片最後一首,雖然還不錯聽,但往往就被忽略了。他介紹我說:《Jesus is a soul man》就是這樣的一首歌。我一聽,果然還不錯,尤其是主奏的吉他我很喜歡。

 

找了很久才找到我當年聽的版本,就請大家一起來聽聽這首曾經「容易被略過」的歌曲。相信有在信耶穌教的朋友,一定會更喜歡。

  

 

 

Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
And I'm sure sold on Him.

Oh they say that he's a square,
That Jesus, He aint nowhere.
I know better, He lives in my heart.
Jesus is a soul man.

You can find Him in the Bible pages.
Jesus - he's the rock of ages.
Hides me in the cleft of the rock.
Jesus is a soul man.

He calms the waves when the storm is ragin.
Keeps me safe when the devils ravin.
He's my staff, he's my sword and my shield.
Jesus is a soul man.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego,
The king, he said, In the fire you must go.
He found out that the fire wouldn't burn em.
They were saved by the soul man.
