When you can't
find the light
that guides you
through the cloudy days
When the stars
ain't shinin' bright
you feel like you've
lost your way
When the candle light
of home
burns so
very far away
Well you've gotta
let your soul shine
just like my daddy
used to say
He used to say
soulshine
it's better than
sunshine
It's better
than moonshine
damn sure
better than rain
Hey now people
don't mind
we all feel
this way sometimes
You've gotta let
your soul shine
shine till the
break of day
I grew up thinkin'
that I had it made
gonna make it
on my own
Life can take
the strongest man
make him feel
so alone
Now sometimes
I feel a cold wind
blowin' through
my achin' bones
I think back to what
my daddy said
He said "Boy
in the darkness
before the dawn"
Let your soul shine
it's better than
sunshine
It's better
than moonshine
damn sure
better than rain
Yeah now people
don't mind
we all feel this way
sometimes
You've gotta let
your soul shine
shine till the
break of day
Sometimes a man
can feel
this emptiness
Like a woman
has robbed him
of his very soul
A woman too
God knows
she can feel like this
And when your world
seems cold
you've gotta let
your spirit take control
Talking 'bout soul shine
it's better than
sunshine
It's better
than moonshine
and damn sure
better than rain
Yeah now people
don't mind
we all feel this way
sometimes
You've gotta let
your soul shine
shine till the
break of day
Oh it's better
than sunshine
It's better
than moonshine
It's damn sure
better than rain
Yeah now people
don't mind
we all feel this way
sometimes
You've gotta let
your soul shine
shine till the
break of day
