Soul Man
See this tall man walking the streets of Helsinki
He's called Seppo, he's a friend of mine from Finland
He tells me: "Henk, she left me again
And I went back to my old apartment close to the graveyard"
Nobody loves you and nobody cares
You're like this leaf that's falling down
And nobody likes you and nobody cares
You're like this leaf that's falling down on the ground
Soul man, soul man
I hope I can
Soul man, soul man
I hope I can
Be your friend
Be your friend again
Now he's all alone in the radio studio at night
He's a disk jockey working for Radio Mafia Helsinki
Sometimes women call him in the night
Nobody likes you, nobody cares
You're like this leaf that's falling down
And nobody loves you and nobody sees that
You're like this leaf that's falling down on the ground
Soul man, soul man
I hope I can
Soul man, soul man
I hope I can
Be your friend
Be your friend again
One night we went walking
From the Torni Hotel to the Kosmos Restaurant
And we were not allowed inside
We were wearing the wrong shoes
That's Helsinki Blues
So we went along
Along the Vanha to the station
Soul man, soul man
I hope I can
Soul man, soul man
I hope I can
Be your friend
Be your friend again
And we were watching the trains
To Saint Peter disappearing in the night
