Big Daddy Kane - I'll Take You There Lyrics
<staple singers: oh! big daddy!>Hear ye, hear ye, from far and nearThe one they call the big daddy kane is hereTo deliver a message to everyone everywhereSo listen up party people cause this you should hearIts a story of a far-away atmosphereThat you will find very rare and far beyond compareAll is sincere and rather debonairSo lets all gather around, because...<hmm...yeah...Ill take you there...oh!> (x4)Off to a place you thought was unrealWhere people of the world do know how to chillEverything remains cool and calm where you areAnd if you ask about crime, they allll say, <hah? !>They wouldnt even know what you meanCause its a different program, yall know the routineWhere people work hard for a decent buckAnd you can wear truck jewelry without being stuckNever wondering whether your house is all rightSo go leave your vcr on the porch overnightAnd as for the people they all stand proudSenior citizens party with the hip-hop crowdYou can hang at a jam till the break of dawnAnd leave without your bally shoes getting stepped onEveryone walks around in their right mind and allBecause crack aint nothing but a hole in the wallSo those who wish to live with glare and flairTheres a place that this can be done, and yo...<hmm...yeah...Ill take you there...oh!> (x4)What I discovered may just only seemAs something that you find in your wildest dreamBut! on the real tip, you will seeIm not playing, what Im saying is realityThere is a place people live with joyThat the next man cannot come along and destroyNo one faces problems, no one says sorryAnd war aint nothing but a game on atariThis message also applies to other nationsLike africa for instance, where theres starvationBut if you come with me, youre sure to seeEthiopians can eat in red lobster for freeAnd people that you saw before that were poorWill never ever see the situation no moreCause in this world everyones a millionaire<is there wic? >Are you sick?And what the hell is welfare?Fashions are smashing for all to flauntAnd we can get anything that we wantSo dont think you cant afford expensive designBecause fresh gucci wear is only $5.99So come ye all and attend this affairAs we journey to the promised land, and...<hmm...yeah...Ill take you there...oh!> (x3)Since Im the type of guy that laughs and jokesThis may sound funny, but seriously folksIts a shame that people today must liveIn a world thats operating oh so negativeBut I found a place designed especially for youWhere peace and harmony is everyones cultureSo lets all gather around before this world corruptsAnd we dont even need scotty to beam us upBecause...<hmm...yeah...Ill take you there...oh!> (x4)<big daddy! oh...hmm!> (x9)<Ill take you there...all right> (x4)
