Take It On Home

When my body's tired and my mind is worn

I'm lost like a child in a delta storm

And I think it's time

To take it on home

Hain't about thread and a needle an' a hole

Coming undone like a frayed out rope

And I think it's time

To take it on home

Back to the arms of the woman I love

So shy an angel with the healin' touch

Sweet hallelujah from heaven above

Strength to my bones

Back to the place where I've been alive

Put a little peace in this heart of mine

Been long gone and I'm thinkin' it's time

To take it on, take it on

Take it on home

There's a spot beneath the magnolia tree

That's where I hear the wind just talkin' to me

And I'm thinkin' it's time

To take it on home

A little white house down a gravel road

Where the world is easy and the days are slow

And I'm thinkin' it's time

To take it on home

Back to the arms of the woman I love

So shy an angel with the healin' touch

Sweet hallelujah from heaven above

Strength to my bones

Back to the place where I've been alive

Put a little peace in this heart of mine

Been long gone and I'm thinkin' it's time

To take it on, take it on

Take it on home

Oh-oh take it on, take it on

Take it on home

When my body's tired and my mind is worn

Lost like a child in a delta storm

And I'm thinkin' it's time

Back to the arms of the women I've loved

So shy an angel with the healin' touch

Sweet hallelujah from heaven above

Strength to my bones

Back to the place where I've been alive

Put a little peace in this heart of mine

Been long gone and I'm thinkin' it's time

To take it on, take it on

Take it on home

Oh-oh take it on, take it on

Take it on home

Ooh yeah take it on, take it on

Take it on home

Take it on home

Take it on home
