"Take You Home" Lyrics

Yeah,.Come walk with me
through the red dirt and clover
Past the clothing line
Smell the food on the stove
Can't just slide on through
Let mama lay eyes on you
She ain't lookin at your outer appearance
She starin at yo soul.

I gotta take you home
while the doors of the church are wide open
I gotta take you home
Come join the family
Cause I gotta take you home
while the doors of the church are wide open
I got a friend, Oh what a friend
And she's my woman.

(And if my mama don't like you) If my mama don't like you,
(Well It's gonna be hard on you) It's gon be hard for me to trust you
Said its gonna be hard, Oh Lord
While the doors of the church are wide open
I got a friend, Oh what a friend
And she's my woman.

Now we're here at the table
Watch my cousins cut up
The last one didn't make it
Said she wasn't good enough.
With her unkept children
No sign of praying life
Mama knows that you're different
She sees your light.

I gotta take you home
while the doors of the church are wide open
I gotta take you home
Be a part of a family
Cause I gotta take you home
while the doors of the church are wide open
I got a friend, Oh what a friend
And she's my woman.

If my mama don't like you,
(It's gonna be hard on you) It's gon be hard for me to trust you
But we can make it through
Let me take you on home
While the doors of the church are wide open
I got a friend, Oh what a friend
And she's my woman.

I gotta take you home
while the doors of the church are wide open
I gotta take you home
Oh, Oh oh be around my family
Cause I gotta take you home
I gotta take you home to mama and get a good look ya
while the doors of the church are wide open
I got a friend, Oh what a friend
And she's my woman.

If my mama don't like you,
(It's gonna be hard on you) It's gon be hard for me to trust you
Say ooooooooh,
While the doors of the church are wide open
Let the church say Amen!
Or get it again
I love you mama!
