I'll Take You There Songtext
von The Staple Singers

Oh, mmm, I know a place
Ain't nobody cryin'
Ain't nobody worried
Ain't no smilin' faces, mmm, no no

Lyin' to the races
Help me, come on, come on
Somebody, help me now (I'll take you there)
Help me, ya'all (I'll take you there)
Help me now (I'll take you there)
Oh! (I'll take you there)
Oh! Oh! Mercy! (I'll take you there)
Oh, let me take you there (I'll take you there)
Oh-oh! Let me take you there! (I'll take you there)


Play your, play your piano now
All right, ah, do it, do it, come on now
Play on it, play on it, make daddy now
Daddy, daddy, daddy, play your

Ooh, Lord, all right now
Baby, little lady, easy now
Now, come on, little lady, all right
Sock it, sock it, ah, oh, oh

I know a place, y'all (I'll take you there)
Ain't nobody cryin' (I'll take you there)
Ain't nobody worried (I'll take you there)
No smilin' faces (I'll take you there)
Uh, uh (Lyin' to the races) (I'll take you there)
Oh, no Oh! (I'll take you there)
Oh, oh, oh! (I'll take you there)

Mercy now! (I'll take you there)
I'm callin', callin', callin' for mercy (I'll take you there)
Mercy, mercy! (I'll take you there)
You oughta, you gotta gotta, let me, let me (I'll take you there)
Take you, take you, take you over there (I'll take you there)
