Roger Mcguinn Take Me Away
You should have been there when the
Time was right for the music to begin
You shoulda been there when that band of gypsies
started rolling in
You should seen it you'da swore for sure the circus
came to town
There were ladies ridin bareback and the mystery man
All painted like a clown
You should seen October feelin like I never felt before
Flashin up New England skies like the fires of the
revoluntionary war
You should heard the music comin down like the hardest
rain that ever fell
Waking up in the afternoons
With a hundred lovers feedin in the same motel
Take me away take me away take me away
Take me away take me away take me away
Take me away take me away take me away
Take me away take me away take me away
To the place where the greatest show on earth is
playing
High on your highway
You shoulda seen me I've been told I had a smile upon
my face
Slippin from state to state ending up in a drunken
state of grace
It wasn't very long ago I used to say this kind of life
is rough
You shoulda been there but I can tell you even that was
not enough
Take me away take me away take me away
Take me away take me away take me away
