Curtis Mayfield

Sweet Exorcist

Come unto me Lord

Come unto me Lord

Come unto me Lord

Come unto me Lord

Come unto me Lord

Can I call this living?

Letting the world take me

Out of my mind

With such heavy burdens

It's hard for one to think sometimes

I'm so down with depression

But, ain't no use in me killing myself

With your values gone

In this world there's hardly nothing left

Sweet

Sweet

Such restlessness, such emphasis, sweet exorcist

Woman I love you

Sometimes it's raining

And all around

It's like a thickening cloud

But the love she gives

It makes me feel so black and proud

So very mystifying

Flutters my heart like the Lord

Is calling me home

Oh baby, you make it so hard for a man to sleep alone

Sweet

Sweet

Such restlessness, such emphasis, sweet exorcist

Woman I love you

I believe in the spirit

I know I believe in the spirit

Traveling soul, was alone part of me

Out in this world

It don't take your eyes long to see

Sweet

Sweet

Such restlessness, such emphasis, sweet exorcist

Woman I love you
