INTRO:
NOTE: This is spoken during the INTRO:
It isnât necessary but I thought
Iâd include it anyway.
âLook at all this space I got to dance.
Hi, yâall !
Weâll start with one of my favorite songs right now
by a fellow named Gregory Porter wrote this song
and heâs gonna be across the street or maybe he just
was across the street. Think I missed it. Thatâs a long
center.â
VERSE:
When, they guild their houses
In preparations for the King
And they line their sidewalks
With every sort of shiny thing
PRE-CHORUS:
Won t they be surprised
When they hear me say
CHORUS:
Take me to the alley
Take me to the afflicted one-ons
Take me to the lonely ones
That somehow lost their way
PRE-CHORUS:
Let them hear me say
That I am your friend
Come unto my table
Rest here in my garden
CHORUS:
You will have a pardon
You will have a pardon, yeah ah ah
CHORUS:
Take me to the alley
Take me to the afflicted one-ons
Take me to the lonely ones
That somehow lost their way

That I am your friend
Come unto my table
Rest here in my garden
CHORUS:
You will have a pardon
You will have a pardon, yeah ah ah
