Take Me Back (ASCAP)
© MonsterKat Publishing
Randell Beck/Paula Brown
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
I wanna go to old Gruene Hall and hear the guitars play
Broken Spoke and Antone’s too
I wanna go and take you, too
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
Where I live is not who I am you would not understand
These city lights and traffic jams might suit some other man
In the hills and on the plains a sweeter place and time
I was young and I was free and the music flowed like wine
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
I wanna go to old Gruene Hall and hear the guitars play
Broken Spoke and Antone’s too
I wanna go and take you, too
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
Lubbock, Dallas, San Antone – I-35 taking me on home
Austin, Houston, El Paso, all the towns with rodeos
Open roads and sunsets too – an empty dried out land
Dance Halls, dives, and biker bars, and music played by bands
They broke my heart and filled my soul and helped me pass the time
Everybody dancing close, and all the lyrics rhymed
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
I wanna go to old Gruene Hall and hear the guitars play
Broken Spoke and Antone’s too
I wanna go and take you, too
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
Lubbock, Brownfield, old Waco – out on the empty plains don’t you know
Austin, Houston, El Paso, all the towns with rodeos
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
I wanna go to old Gruene Hall and hear the guitars play
Broken Spoke and Antone’s too
I wanna go and take you, too
Take me back somehow, take me back someday
Take me back to Texas – take me back someday
