"Show Me The Way" lyrics - JON BATISTE

[Chorus:]
If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
Show me the way

If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
Show me the way

I've been digging into Ella Fitzgerald
Billy Holiday, Jonathan McReynolds
When you talk about gettin' in
I wanna say, come on
I really do
Listening to Wu-Tang Clan
Wanna drive down to the new Dazz band
Stevie Wonder on the way home
I wanna say, come on

[Pre-Chorus:]
I need you (Do you wanna come around)
You (I really wanna get down)
You (I really wanna come around)
(I really wanna get down)

[Chorus:]
If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
Show me the way

If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
Show me the way

I'd like to feel a little Hubert Laws
And Thelonious
On the phone with us
Vibin' on Nina Simone
I gotta say, come on
I really do
Now I wanna hold your hand
Lil' Darlin, Lover Man
Beatles or Rolling Stones
I gotta say, come on

[Pre-Chorus:]
I need you (Do you wanna come around)
You (I really wanna get down)
You (Do you wanna come around)
Oh! (I really wanna get down)

[Chorus:]
If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
Show me the way

If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
Show me the way

I really ain't tryna play no games
You and me in exotic lands
Traveling through space and time
Just to relax, get cool, unwind
Turn that record player on
Blast me your favorite song
Yeah, oh yeah

[Chorus:]
If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
(You gotta show me the way)
(You gotta show me the way)
Show me the way

If I don't know
If I don't know
If I don't know
You gotta show me the way
(You gotta show me the way)
(Really, y'all know the way)
Show me the way
