Patti LaBelle - The Spirit's In It Lyrics






I know it is in you
And it won't leave you alone
I'm talking about the spirit

The spirit's in it
'An you can't find it no more
The spirit's in it
An' it won't let you go forth

So stop - stop a moment
I got a better idea
Let's talk it over
Let's get together sometime

The spirit's in it
There's no place you can go
The spirit's in it
Now you can't say you don't know

So wait - wait a second
Let me suggest to you
We can do better, do better
In time

We can do better in time

The spirit's in it
'An you can't find it no more
The spirit's in it
It done open an' shut the door

So listen to me people
Get control of yourself
Let's get together
'An work things out

The spirit's in it
There's no need in you hidin'
The spirit's in it
Can't you hear it
Testify, yeah

Please wait - everybody
You're leaving me out
Let's get together
And talk sometime

Spirit, spirit
Spirit, spirit
Spirit, spirit
Spirit, spirit
Spirit, spirit
Spirit, spirit
Spirit, spirit
Spirit
