Written by:Aerle Jones/Todd Thomas[00:00:00]
Oh won't you let me won't you help me[00:00:00]
Won't you help me understand your plan[00:00:05]
Take me home take me home home[00:00:10]
Take me home take me home home[00:00:15]
Lord I've really been real stressed down and out losing ground[00:00:20]
Although I am black and proud problems got me pessimistic[00:00:25]
Brothers and sisters messin' up why does it have to be so damn turf[00:00:29]
Why does it have to be so damn turf[00:00:34]
Why does it have to be so damn turf[00:00:36]
I don't know where I can go to let these ghosts out of my skull[00:00:39]
My grandma past my brother's gone I never at once felt so alone[00:00:43]
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel not just my spare tire[00:00:48]
Home but lord I ask you[00:00:52]
Home to be my guiding force and truth[00:00:55]
Home for some strange reason it had to be[00:00:57]
Home he guided me to Tennessee home[00:01:00]
Take me to another place take me to another land[00:01:03]
Make me forget all that hurts me let me understand your plan[00:01:07]
Take me to another place take me to another land[00:01:12]
Make me forget all that hurts me let me understand your plan[00:01:16]
Lord it's obvious we got a relationship[00:01:22]
Lord it's obvious we got a relationship[00:01:24]
Lord it's obvious we got a relationship[00:01:26]
Talkin' to each other every night and day[00:01:29]
Although you're superior over me[00:01:31]
We talk to each other in a friendship way[00:01:33]
Then outta nowhere you tell me to break[00:01:36]
Outta the country and into more country[00:01:38]
Outta the country and into more country[00:01:40]
Outta the country and into more country[00:01:43]
Past dyesburg and ripleys[00:01:45]
Past dyesburg and ripleys[00:01:47]
Past dyesburg and ripleys[00:01:50]
Where the ghost[00:01:52]
Where the ghost[00:01:53]
Where the ghost of childhood haunts me[00:01:55]
Walk the roads my forefathers walked[00:01:57]
Climb the trees my forefathers hung from[00:01:59]
Ask those trees for all their wisdom[00:02:02]
They tell me my ears are so young home[00:02:04]
Go back to whence you came home[00:02:06]
My family tree my family name home[00:02:09]
For some strange reason it had to be home[00:02:11]
He guided me to Tennessee home[00:02:14]
Take me to another place take me to another land[00:02:16]
Make me forget all that hurts me let me understand your plan[00:02:21]
Take me to another place take me to another land[00:02:25]
Make me forget all that hurts me let me understand your plan[00:02:30]
Now I see the importance of history[00:02:45]
Why my people be in the mess that they be[00:02:47]
Many journeys to freedom made in vain[00:02:49]
By brothers on the corner playin' ghetto games[00:02:51]
I ask you lord why you enlightened me[00:02:54]
Without the enlightenment of all my folks[00:02:56]
He said cuz I set myself on a quest for truth[00:02:58]
And he was there to quench my thirst[00:03:01]
But I am still thirsty[00:03:04]
The lord[00:03:08]
The lord[00:03:10]
The lord[00:03:13]
The lord allowed me to drink some more[00:03:18]
He said what I am searching for are[00:03:19]
The answers to all which are in front of me[00:03:22]
The ultimate truth started to get blurry[00:03:24]
For some strange reason it had to be[00:03:27]
It was all a dream about Tennessee[00:03:29]
Take me to another place take me to another land[00:03:31]
Make me forget all that hurts me let me understand your plan[00:03:36]
Take me to another place take me to another land[00:03:41]
Make me forget all that hurts me let me understand your plan[00:03:46]
Oh won't you let me won't you help me[00:03:50]
Won't you help me understand your plan[00:03:57]
Take me home take me home home take me to another place[00:04:08]
Take me home no need a home[00:04:20]
