Oh

Well I woke up in the morning, I said a morning prayer
I washed my face with soap, I ran my fingers through my hair
I went down to the studio on Hollywood and Vine
The clock said seven thirty, well I made it just in time
I greeted the musicians, I grabbed the nearest chair
I started playing my guitar and told the engineer

C'mon let that tape keep rolling [x4]
C'mon, c'mon
C'mon c'mon c'mon

The first song that we cut was called "Lonely By Myself"
I think I'll do the vocal later, you can just leave it on the shelf
The second song we cut was called "Unlucky Blues"
The session's getting better now, we're turning on the juice
You know the last song took us seven takes, first one took us ten
If Jesus came right now I wonder who'd get in

Ah c'mon let that tape keep rolling

C'mon (c'mon) let that tape keep rolling [x4]
C'mon, ah c'mon

Do you hear me singing on your record machine
The piano's banging, the guitar's twanging
The water cooler's clanging, the light bulb's hanging
Yes the music's playing, the production's clean
Cross fade all the tracks, don't leave no spaces in between

C'mon (c'mon) let that tape keep rolling
C'mon (c'mon) let your love keep flowing
C'mon (c'mon) let that tape keep rolling
C'mon (c'mon) let that tape keep rolling
C'mon (c'mon) c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon c'mon, c'mon, c'mon

I started out ten years ago, my guitar in my hand
I took the message in my heart and I gave it to the land
I went down to EMI to record Upon This Rock
I wanted to say something, I just let the music talk

I know where I am going, I know who I must be
I don't care how long it takes me, there's lots of things to see

C'mon (c'mon) let that tape keep rolling
C'mon (c'mon) let your love keep flowing
C'mon (c'mon) let your faith keep growing
C'mon (c'mon) let your light keep showing
C'mon (c'mon) be careful what you're signing
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon

He come walking down my street
He come into my heart
He make me feel so good
So good. so good. so tough
So fine
You know what I'm talking about
​You know what I'm talking about

Talking about
I'm going home
I'm going home boumba back home
Bou ah-bou bou bou back home
Ah-bou ah-dou bou ba back home
Yeah

You come down, you make me feel alright
Like a thief in the middle of the night
I'm going home
I said come on
I'm going home
Let's go home

I'm going home

Going home [x4]
​Getting out, checking out
Going home
Just visiting this planet
I'm only visiting
This world is not my home
I'm going home

Be back in fifteen minutes [Spoken]
