I was warned a bunch by the local police
That taking this road could end in grief
It's not the newest highway -- it's not safe at all
And I was hit by thieves -- I'm feelin' under siege
Playin' rough -- soon they left me to bleed
Upon a Jewish highway -- with no way to call
And then two came around -- the kind you'd find in town
On the Temple mount
I thought they'd offer first aid -- but, no, they did not
Well, I've had all I can take -- I can't take it no more
I'm gonna pass away and die -- why wait?
There's no aid at all
So why don't you
Turn to Luke, turn to Luke, turn to Luke
In chapter 10 you'll find me -- but don't wait at all
Why don't you
Turn to Luke, turn to Luke, turn to Luke
You gotta do it right away -- I'm gonna die
A Samaritan sees
I'm here and stops for me
Taking time to attend to my needs
I thought the dude would shy away because he wasn't my race
And when my wounds were bound
He'd drive me down to town
That was so profound
He gladly spent his own pay -- you might be sayin' no way!
So why don't you
Learn the truth -- turn to Luke 10 for proof
And start in 29, babe -- and go read it all
Why don't you
Turn to Luke, turn to Luke, turn to Luke
You oughta do it right away -- find what's inside
Ooh yeah!
So why don't you
Learn the truth -- turn to Luke 10 for proof
And start in 29, babe -- and go read it all
Why don't you
Turn to Luke, turn to Luke, turn to Luke
You oughta do it right away -- you oughta do it right away
Why don't you
Turn to Luke, turn to Luke, turn to Luke
You oughta do it right away -- find what's inside
Turn to Luke, turn to Luke, turn to Luke
Turn to Luke, turn to Luke, turn to Luke
Turn to Luke!
