The Staple Singers - If You're Ready Come Go With Me
I self-deleted the first post of this song. I wanted the lyrics on the screen and posted the one I found on YouTube that had them--the first part was okay so I foolishly posted it thinking it was okay all the way through. My son watched it all the way through later and saw a few things that were not what I would want to put out there. I humbly apologize to anyone that was offended. I am not about hurting anyone. I will definitely be more careful in the future. I wanted the words because this song is as relevant today as it was in 1973 when it was released.

Here are the lyrics: THE STAPLE SINGERS
"If You're Ready (Come Go With Me)"
If you're ready
If you're ready now
If you're ready, yeah
Come on go with me
No hatred (come go with me)
Will be tolerated (come go with me)
Peace and love come go with me
Will grow between the races (come go with me)
Love is the only transportation
To where there's total communication
If you (come go with me)
Get ready now (come go with me)
Feel you're able (come go with me)
Take me by my hand, y'all (come go with me)
No disaster (come go with me)
Will ever enter there (come go with me)
No wars (come go with me) uh huh
Would ever be declared (come go with me)
No economical exploitation
And no political domination
If you (come go with me)
Get ready now (come go with me) yeah
Think you're able (come go with me)
Come on go with me (come go with me)
Oh, oh, oh genocide (come go with me)

Troublemaker (come go with me)
You, you better get ready now (come go with me)
Liars (come go with me) oh

Come and go with me (come go with me)
Don't bother me (come go with me)
Quit your system troublin', yeah (come go with me)
Yeah, weary need a rest (come go with me)
Yeah, come on y'all, come on y'all (come go with me)
Yeah, if you wanna be free here, all right (come go with me)
Come on go with me (come go with me)
