Carry Me Away Lyrics - Takin' It To The Streets - The Doobie Brothers

Patrick Simmons / Jeffrey Baxter / Michael McDonald 

There was a place in East St. Louis 

It was in nineteen fifty nine 

When they played they filled the streets with music 

That lonely blue note music 

That takes your cares away, far away 

They packed the place when the band was playin' 

To get some joy from a smoke filled room 

Through that door you could see the bodies swayin' 

The blue note band was playin' 

Some lonely blue note song, all night long

Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away 

Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away 

No place I'd rather stay

If you should ever make it to St. Louis 

On some hot and lonely night 

If you listen you can hear that blue note music 

They fill the streets with music 

It carries you away, far away 

Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away 

Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away 

No place I'd rather stay
