DON'T EVER LET NOBODY DRAG YOUR SPIRIT DOWN
(Eric Bibb, Charlotte Höglund)

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

2. Walk with the rich. Walk with the poor
Learn from everyone. That's what life is for.
Don't ever let nobody drag your spirit down.
(Don't let nobody drag your spirit down.)
Remember we're walkin' up to heaven. Don't let nobody turn you round.

3. Some say yes. Some say no.
Some people wait and see which way the wind's gonna blow.
Don't ever let nobody drag your spirit down.
(Don't let nobody drag your spirit down.)
Remember we're walkin' up to heaven. Don't let nobody turn you round.

4. I might say things that sound strange to you.
I might preach the gospel. I believe it's true.
I can't ever let nobody drag my spirit down.
(Don't let nobody drag your spirit down.)
Well, I'm walkin' up to heaven. Won't let nobody turn me round.

REPEAT VERSE 1.

I hadn't heard this song until we used it in the Rise Again songbook. It's a good one.
I used Jim Dixon's transcription above as the basis for the lyrics that appear in the songbook. Thanks, Jim.
