Lyrics for Let The Rhythm Take You Home by Dave Stewart and The Hothouse Flowers from the album An Emotional Time

Well the introduction to this song is very basic
It’s a song of thanks to for music
And with the help of the Reverend Honourable Honorary Will Jennings
From East Texas
We’re gonna thank the power that be the law, the earth, the earth, the sky, the air
and everything that breathes, for the music and the rhythm because…

There’s so much to remember
There’s so much to forget
To live into the music
Cause it has not failed me yet
There’s a garden up in heaven
There’s a church in the street
And I know when I’m dancing
I’ll be praying on my feet

I just let that rhythm take me home
Just let that rhythm take me home

There’s something that somebody
Can buy out I should
To give is to receive
And to receive is to give
It’s all been very serious
But laughter comes for free
If it’s okay with you my Lord
It’ll be okay with me

We’ll just let that rhythm take us home
Just let that rhythm take us home

Sometimes I’m worried
Sometimes you’re hurt
Get into the music, man
And dance for all your worth

Just let that rhythm take you home
Just let that rhythm take you home
Just let that rhythm take you home
Just let that rhythm take you home

(Try another one!)
