Spirit In The Dark (featuring The Dixie Flyers) Songtext
von Aretha Franklin

I-I′m gettin' the spirit in the dark (um-hum-hum)
I′m gettin' the spirit in the dark (um-hum-hum)
People movin', oh, and they groovin′
Just gettin′ the spirit (um-hum-hum) in the dark

Tell me, sister, how do you feel?
Tell me, my brother, brother, brother
How do you feel?
Do you feel like dancin'?
Get up and let′s start dancin'
Start gettin′ the spirit (start gettin' in the spirit)
Spirit in the dark (in the dark)

It′s like Sally Walker
Sittin' in a saucer
That's how you do it
It ain′t nothin′ to it
Ride Sally, ride
Put your hand on your hips
Cover your eyes


And move (move) with the spirit (with the spirit)
Go on and move (move)
Move with the spirit (with the spirit)
Oh, move (move)
Move with the spirit (with the spirit)
Nah, nah, nah
Move (move) with the spirit

Are you gettin' the spirit? (Yeah)
Are you gettin′ it in the dark? (Yeah)
I wonder how you're gettin′ the spirit? (Yeah)
Gettin' the spirit in the dark (Yeah)

People movin′ yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody's groovin'
Just gettin′ the spirit (start gettin′ in the spirit)
Are you gettin' it? Are you gettin′ it in the dark? (In the dark)

It's like Sally Walker
Sittin′ in her saucer
That's how you do it
Now get on up to it
Ride Sally, ride
Put your hands on your hips
Cover your eyes


And move on up (move) with the spirit (with the spirit)
Go on and move (move)
Move with the spirit (with the spirit)
Move (move) with the spirit (with the spirit)
Hey, now move (move)
Move with the spirit

(I think I′ve got it!)
All of my brothers (move with the spirit)
All of my sisters (move with the spirit)
Move (move with the spirit)
With the spirit (move with the spirit)
Keep on movin' (move with the spirit)
We all groove (groove with the spirit now)
Now move (move with the spirit)

Keep on groove! (Groove with the spirit)
You gotta move your hands (move)
Put 'em together now do your thing (move)
Gotta move your feet (groove!)
The spirit on the beat (move)
Oh, move (move with the spirit)
Move! (Move with the spirit)
Oh, move (move with the spirit)

Move (move with the spirit)
Move with the spirit (move with the spirit)
Ooh yeah, move on (move with the spirit)
Move with the spirit (move with the spirit)
Come on (move with the spirit)
Right on (move)
(The spirit) (move) come on
(The spirit) a-move (move)

(The spirit) move on (move)
The spirit (move with the spirit)
Feel (move with the spirit)
Feel it (move with the spirit)
Feel (move with the spirit)

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (move with the spirit)

Oh, good God, a-mighty (move with the spirit)
