Gregory Porter - Take Me To The Alley

Well, they guild their houses

In preparation for the King

And the line the sidewalks

With every sort of shiny thing

They will be surprised

When they hear him say


Take me to the alley

Take me to the afflicted ones

Take me to the lonely ones

That somehow lost their ways


Let them hear me say

I am your friend

Come to my table

Rest here in my garden

You will have a pardon


Take me to the alley

Take me to the afflicted ones

Take me to the lonely ones

That somehow lost their ways


Let them hear me say

I am your friend

Come to my table

Rest here in my garden

You will have a pardon




They will be surprised

When the hear him say


Take me the alley

Take me to the afflicted ones

Take me to the lonely ones that

Somehow lost their ways


Let them hear me say

I am your friend

Come to my table

Rest here in my garden

You will have a pardon

You will have a pardon

Take me to the alley

Take me to the afflicted ones

Take me, take me, take me...
