Lyrics
Oh, mmm, I know a place
Ain't nobody cryin'
Ain't nobody worried
Ain't no smilin' faces, mm-mm, no no
Lyin' to the races
Help me, come on, come on
Somebody, help me now (I'll take you there)
Help me, y'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 it baby
Play your, play your piano now
Alright
Do it, do it, come on now
Play on it, play on it, make daddy now
Daddy, daddy, daddy, play your, mm
Ooh, Lord, alright now
Baby, little lady, easy now
And now, come on, little lady, alright
And suck it so, alright, oh, ah
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, o! (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 got, you got, you gotta let me, let me (I'll take you there)
Take you, take you, take you over there (I'll take you there)
Oh, oh, alright (I'll take you there)
