Flesh & Bone (dedicated to B.B. King) Songtext
von Buddy Guy with Van Morrison

Better read the good book through and through
Said that the Lord′s Word is the only truth
Ain't it 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 have passed 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 (ooh) than flesh and bone

Ooh-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh

The gore I feed on is real as rain
More than words can it ever explain
We meet again, sun sweet tale (sun sweet tale)
Far beyond this worldly 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

Ooh
Flesh and bone
Flesh and bone, mm
Ooh
