Gregory Porter – Take Me To The Alley (Spiritual Songs 2020)

[Verse]
Well they build their houses in preparation for the king
And they line the sidewalks
With every sort of shiny thing
They will be surprised
When they hear him say

[Chorus 1]
Take me to the alley
Take me to the afflicted ones
Take me to the lonely ones
That somehow lost their way

[Chorus 2]
Let them hear me say
I am your friend
Come to my table
Rest here in my garden
You will have a pardon

[Chorus 1]
Take me to the alley
Take me to the afflicted ones
Take me to the lonely ones
That somehow lost their way
[Chorus 2]
Let them hear me say
I am your friend
Come to my table
Rest here in my garden
You will have a pardon

[Trumpet Solo]

[Bridge]
They will be surprised
When they hear him say

[Chorus 1]
Take me to the alley
Take me to the afflicted ones
Take me to the lonely ones
That somehow lost their way

[Chorus 2]
Let them hear me say
I am your friend
Come to my table
Rest here in my garden
You will have a pardon
[Outro]
You will have a pardon
Take me to the alley
Take me to the afflicted ones
Take me,take me ,take me ,take me ,take me
