LONG WAY AROUND

Every evening I follow my master Lead me down to the praying ground No sir I can't seem to go no faster I'll be taking the long way around Early spring child you weren't getting no younger When love just brought you down All last fall I waited for the summer I was taking the long way around Sister take your time, come to me slowly Lead me down to the praying ground All that's sacred child, all that is holy Bound to come to us on the long way around Way down here where anything can happen I mean down on the praying ground Look out child it look like something be coming It be coming the long way around I'll be taking the long way around Way down here where anything can happen I mean down on the praying ground Look out child it look like something be coming I'll be taking the long way around I'll be taking the long way around
