Song background

Sam Cooke was born in Mississippi, a state in the southern United States. He had seven brothers and sisters. When he was little, he sang with his family in a group called The Singing Children. Later, he sang gospel music (religious music) in his church. Then he began to sing popular music. His music is called soul music. Soul music is a mix of gospel music and rock and roll. Sam Cooke is called the King of Soul because he was one of the first to play soul music.
Sam Cooke first sang “Wonderful World” in the 1950s. It is about a high school student who isn’t a very good student, but who knows a lot about love.
