It’s shocking how many people dislike Rascal Flatts, but I don’t include myself in that list. I love Rascal Flatts, as does my wife, Cathy. The carrier single of Still Feels Good, the new Rascal Flatts album out late September, is arguably the group’s best single since Bless the Broken Road.
Co-written by can’t-do-nuthin’-wrong country superstar Kenny Chesney, Take Me There has an irresistible hook, unforgivably mushy lyrics, and, as always, a powerful delivery by lead vocalist Gary LeVox (what can you expect from a gentleman whose name is French for ‘The Voice’?). In other words, Take Me There is another #1 Rascal Flatts song just waiting to happen.
I don’t really care if country purists hate on Rascal Flatts, harping on a saccharine-sweet delivery or boy band tag, because, at the end of the day, Rascal Flatts will sell millions of copies and go straight to #1 on country radio. (If Rascal Flatts weren’t country, country radio wouldn’t play ’em, now, would they?) I ain’t no purist, I just like me some music that I enjoy. And this is it. Rascal Flatts’ Take Me There. (Thanks, Berg.)
Take Me There is now #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart! In its 10th week on the chart, Take Me There is the fastest-moving Rascal Flatts song to ever go to #1. Congratulations, Rascal Flatts!

TAKE ME THERE Lyrics
Rascal Flatts
There’s a place in your heart, nobody’s been,
Take me there.
Things nobody knows,
Not even your friends,
Take me there.
Tell me bout your momma, your daddy, your hometown,
Show me around,
I want see it all, don’t leave anything out
I want to know, everything about you then.
And I want to go, down every road you’ve been.
Where your hopes and dreams, and wishes live,
Where you keep the rest of your life hid,
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare,
Take me there.
Your first real kiss, your first true love,
You were scared.
Show me where,
You learned about life, spent your summer nights, without a care.
I want to roll down Main Street, the back roads,
Like you did when you were a kid,
What made you who you are,
Tell me what your story is.
I want to know, everything about you then.
And I want to go, down every road you’ve been.
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live
Where you keep the rest of your life hid
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare
Take me there
I want to know, everything about you
Yeah, everything about you baby
I want to go, down every road you’ve been.
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live,
Where you keep the rest of your life hid,
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare.
Take me, take me, take me there.
Take me there.
