Gonna Take It Lyrics

John Butler Trio Gonna Take It

Smile your lovely smile
And tell me of tomorrows for a while And hold my hand
And tell me, tell me, tell me you understand
'Cos I know your name
And there ain't no one else
I'd trust now with this shame
So, so good woman, open up your heart
And I will take it back to the beginning I will

Yes I am gonna take it
Gonna take it
Gonna take it
Right back from the start
Gonna take it
Gonna take it
Gonna take it right back from the start

'Cos I am weary and I am torn
Been fighting a war that started before yes I was born
And now before it tears my heart clean apart
This is my proclaimation
This is me

She said taste the spice
Don't just hang it up in the corner
Where you think it looks nice
And ah say what needs to be said
'Coz youre health man is your wealth
And you're a long time dead

Yes I am gonna take it
Gonna take it
Gonna take it
Right back from the start
Gonna take it
Gonna take it
Gonna take it right back from the start
