Artist/Band: Burton Cummings
Lyrics for Song: Take One Away
Lyrics for Album: Up Close & Alone [2007]



TAKE ONE AWAY

One cloudless morning was it day or night

The sun and the moon were bright

Take one away

Two holy sisters in the desert dry

From the weight the old mule will die

Take one away

Oh mama I think it's time you knew

The day I first came to you

I was dead on arrival

Now I can hear you pleading on the radio

Mama I've joined the church you know

And I've been passing out bibles

Take one away

Three babies conceived she couldn't afford them all

The curtain begins to fall

Take one away

Five o'clock in the morning ... oh just an hour ago

She might have been alive you know

But they took one away
