Hi everyone,
Can anyone please help me with the song title to this line? It just repeats
over and over (chorus I guess) but I don't know any of the other lyrics.
Thanks!
T

"I'll Take You There", Staple Singers. I don't have the words, and I could
not find them.

Oh . . . mmm

Help me, come on, come on
Somebody, help me now

Come on now
Play on it, play on it

Ooh, Lord
