Charles, Ray - Spirit In The Dark Lyrics






I'm gettin' the spirit in the dark
I'm gettin' the spirit in the dark
People movin', oh people groovin'
They're gettin' the spirit in the dark
Tell me sister, how do you feel?
Tell me my brother brother brother, how do you feel?
You feel like dancin', get up and let's start dancin'
Start gettin' the spirit, the spirit in the dark

It's like Sally Walker, sittin' in a saucer
That's how you do it, ain't nothin' to it
Ride Sally ride
Put your hands on your hips, cover your eyes
And move, move with the spirit
Oh yeah move, move with the spirit
Oh move, move with the spirit now now now
Move, with the spirit

How you're gettin' the spirit, I've been gettin' in the dark
I wonder how you're gettin' the spirit, gettin' the spirit in the dark
People movin', yeah everybody's groovin'
Just gettin' the spirit, how you're gettin' it how you're gettin' it in the
Dark

It's like Sally Walker, sittin' in a saucer
That's how you do it, ain't nothin' to it
Ride Sally ride
Put your hands on your hips, cover your eyes
And move, move with the spirit
Oh yeah move, move with the spirit
Oh move, move with the spirit now now now
Move, with the spirit

    Man the talent back then! There are great singers around today, but NONE have this soul! There's a feeling you get from this that you just don't get from today's music!

    two souls of the same being and this live performance was stunning and essential.two of the ground breaking artists ever

    M.... M....

    The Queen and the Genius together makes one hell of an explosion. And this song is "TIMELESS"

  16. S.... ....

    Is that Ray on organ? He played a BAD organ!!

    S.... ....

    I think its Billy Preston.

    S.... ....

    Ray was at the electric piano. I think Aretha's best recordings was those with Jerry Wexler - who produced the Fillmore West Live album. There was magic the way Aretha and Wexler had one thought when it came to music.

  17. M.... s....

    This is one of those moments in time where you sit back and listen and enjoy

  18. J.... H....

    Aretha is eternal.

  19. G.... Z....

    Greatness.... from two of my favorite musicians of all time. Now they can play together again up in the big blue sky.

  20. K.... N....

    Billy Preston was also onstage, as was King Curtis, leading & playing saxophone. I think Cornell DuPree played guitar. What a night that must have been!

    K.... N....

    and Bernard Purdie on drums.
