Precious Loretta Lee Jones<br />

I wanna take you on home, I gotta take ya<br />

Lord I never do you wrong<br />

<br />

I wanna take you to the seashore<br />

I'd like to take you back to my house<br />

Ain't gotta a house by the seashore<br />

Gonna figure a way to take you anyhow<br />

<br />

Precious Loretta Lee Jones<br />

I wanna take you on home, I gotta take ya<br />

Lord I never do you wrong<br />

<br />

I wanna take you to the seashore<br />

I’d like to take you back to my house<br />

Ain’t gotta house by the seashore<br />

Gonna figure out a way to take you mama<br />

I never fake it but I just make you do it anyhow.<br />

<br />

So I hear you walking my way<br />

Hear you asking my friend my name<br />

I’d die to call you baby<br />

You shake me up<br />

You make me shiver and smile<br />

<br />

Precious Loretta Lee Jones<br />

I wanna take you on home, I gotta take ya<br />

Lord I never do you wrong<br />

<br />

I wanna take you to the seashore.<br />

I wanna take you back to Margate(??)<br />

I wanna take you to St Lucy<br />

Gonna figure out a way to take you mama<br />

I never fake it but I just make you do it anyhow<br />

<br />

So I hear you walking my way<br />

Hear you asking my friend my name<br />

I’d die to call you baby<br />

You shake me up<br />

You make me shiver and smile<br />

I said I’d tame the wild<br />

I may be dumb but I ain’t in denial

<br />
