Flesh & Bone (Dedicated to B.B. King) [with Van Morrison] Songtext

von Buddy Guy

Better read the good book through and through
Said the Lord's words is the only truth
It ain't over the day you die
We all live on in the spirit by and by

This life is more than flesh and bone
Find out now before you're gone
When you're gone your spirit lives on
This life is more than flesh and bone

Now I know my daddy was right
I read that good book and I've seen the light
Mama and daddy are past and gone
They're still with me ‘cause love lives on

This life is more than flesh and bone
Find out now before you're gone
When you're gone your spirit lives on
This life is more than flesh and bone

The gore I feed on is real as rain
More than words can ever explain
We'll meet again some sweet day
Far beyond this world in pain

This life is more than flesh and bone
Find out now before you're gone
When you're gone your spirit goes on
This life is more than flesh and bone
