Grab your coat, honey, grab your hat
This train is leaving and it ain't
comin' back
Don't need a ticket, can't you understand
You're on your
way to the promised land.
It's overdue but now the time is right,
yeah
It's up to you to make it real, so take me,
Take me back to
paradise
(oooh)
Take me back to paradise
(oooh)
Old
Saint Peter at the pearly gate
said hurry up boy or you're gonna be late
Take your mind off your worries for a moment or two
You gotta rock to
the rhythm, it ain't hard to do
Cause what you see I know you're gonna
like, yeah
It's up to you to make it real, so take me,
Take me back
paradise, paradise
(oooh yeah)
Take me back to paradise, paradise
(oooh)
SOLO
When its out of reach it's just another
beach in another town
You get your feet back on the ground
You worked
all your life you ain't satisfied with a thing you've found
When will you
realize it'll come around?
Pack your bags, baby, get your things
You never know what tomorrow brings
Mind your step and watch what you
say
Before you know you'll be on your way
It's overdue but now
the time is right, yeah
It's up to you to make it real, so take me,
Take me back to paradise, paradise
(oooh)
Take me back to
paradise, paradise
(oooh)
Take me back to paradise, paradise
(oooh)
Won't you take me back to paradise, paradise
(oooh)
Take me back to paradise
