Gregory Porter Dry Bones Lyrics Details
Gregory Porter looks back on his career so far with the double CD “Still Rising”, which will be released on November 5th. One and a half years of pandemic lie behind the American singer – a time in which he released his album “All Rise”, but it was still very quiet for someone who otherwise tours the world all year round. Porter’s personal retrospective is subtitled “The Collection” and contains 30 songs.
For around ten years, Gregory Porter has been knocking out one fantastic hit after another. And earned a reputation for having the “softest voice in show business” (BBC 5). During this period, the singer was nominated for a Grammy seven times in the jazz, R&B, and pop categories. He was able to take home the coveted award twice. So it’s high time to take stock of the interim, but also to sniff a little into the future. This is exactly what the still rising jazz star does on “ Still Rising ”. Gregory Porter has collected no less than 34 great shots here. In addition to songs from his successful albums “ Water ”, “ Liquid Spirit ”, “ Take Me To The Alley ”, “ Nat King Cole & Me ” and “ All Rise ”, “ Still Rising ” contains a selection of his best collaborations with Jamie Cullum, Jeff and others Goldblum, Lizz Wright, Ben L’Oncle Soul, and Mobi. And as the icing on the cake, a couple of brand new songs that are likely to storm the charts soon, such as “ Hey Laura ”, “ Liquid Spirit ”, “ Revival ” or “ If Love Is Overrated ”. “Still Rising” is out on November 5th. But you can already listen to the album now. With “ Dry Bones ” one of the new songs has just been released digitally.
Gregory Porter Dry Bones Lyrics
I won’t die, won’t bury, won’t sink
‘Cause love is the spirit I drink
I’ll be free in the morning light
‘Cause your touch is the medicine of life
There’s a dance to this beat, let’s shake
Every move, feel my body awake
There’s a sound, you and me are one
And your hope is the rhythm I drum
Is your soul in the desert?
Are your dreams in the sand?
Can’t dance with the devil
Till he’s off your back
‘Cause these dry, dry bones
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
‘Cause these dry, dry bones
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
‘Cause these dry, dry bones
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
‘Cause these dry, dry bones
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
Take my hand, let it set you free
Keep on working on your destiny
There’s healing in the air, get touched
‘Cause you feel it? ‘Cause the message is love
Is your soul in the desert?
Are your dreams in the sand?
Can’t dance with the devil
Till he’s off your back
‘Cause these dry, dry bones
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
‘Cause these dry, dry bones
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
‘Cause these dry, dry bones
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
Dry, dry bones
Rise up, gonna rise up
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
Gotta rise up, gonna rise up
Gotta rise
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, hey
Dry, and dry, and dry, and dry
And dry, and dry, and dry, and dry
And dry
Rise up, oh
Hey
