DON'T EVER LET NOBODY DRAG YOUR SPIRIT DOWN
(Bibb)
ERIC BIBB

You might slip, you might slide
You might stumble and fall by the roadside
But don't ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you 'round

Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you 'round

Some say yes, some say no
Some wait and see which way the wind blows
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
When we're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you 'round

Well, I might say things that sound strange to you
And I might preach the gospel, I believe it's true
I won't let nobody drag my spirit down
Yes, I'm walking up to heaven, people
Won't let nobody turn me 'round

You might slip, you might slide
You might stumble and fall by the roadside
But don't ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you 'round
