Luther Dickinson - Ain't No Grave ft. Mavis Staples lyrics

[Verse 1] I looked d**h dead in the eyes as he pa**es me by See you later son and for your father come for you later If ever your father When that day comes d**h comes back my way [Chorus] I would hope to be as brave as he was on judgement day I would hope to be as brave as he was on judgement day Ain't no grave hold this body down no grave Hold this body down no grave Ain't no grave hold this body down [Verse 2] Blessed are their mother he was her heart There comes a time when souls must part Been side by side from the start She gave you strength to carry through I guess that is one this we all got to do Face that one thing we all have to do [Chorus] I would hope to be that brave as she was on judgement day Ain't no grave hold this body down no grave Hold this body down no grave Ain't no grave hold this body down [Vesre 3] It is been my great fortune to know two great men Music of those fuse Music of us fuse I'm all wrapped up in it and I have no fear Of the music of us few If I had my way he'd be here today to Sit down at the piano and play Sit down at the piano and play See him in the face of my newborn baby child Of wheel time spinning in the sky Baby girl looks me straight in the eye I would hope to be as brave [Chorus] As she was on judgement day Ain't no grave hold this body down no grave Hold this body down no grave Ain't no grave hold this body down Ain't no grave hold this body down no grave Hold this body down no grave Ain't no grave hold this body down
