What Are The Lyrics For Take Me Away By Jim White?
That's how they found him
He was howling at the moon He's sitting right there on the railway tracks And the train was coming There was a string of wild flowers Draped around his collar And when he saw the men were coming for him Well, he began to holler He cried, "Take me away, take me away" But the men could not be sure If he was talking to them or talking to the oncoming train Now his mama she watched religion on the TV Each day from dawn to dusk And at night when she'd hear him howling Well, she'd cried to Jesus For years she begged the Sweet Redeemer To heal her crazy son Until finally she just gave up on miracles And called the men to come She told them, "Take him away, take my son away 'Cause after 20 long years I've simply run out prayers to pray" But as he stood to fight the men From the other side of the railway bed He thought he heard the calling voice Of an old friend he thought long dead But when he turned away from the men He found it was a stranger calling him And as if he knew that man He smiled and raised his hand As he stepped into the golden sun Of the headlight of the oncoming train And as he did he locked eyes with that stranger He cried out one last time He cried, "Take me away, please, take me away" And to this day in this little town Not a soul knows what he was trying to say All them years of shouting take me away No, no one knows what he was trying to say Or who that stranger was |
