[Chorus]
I'll take care of you with all my heart and all my soul
I'll take care of you with all that's in me, you are my love
[Verse 1]
And good things, I pledge my love to you
Put your trust in me
Make no mistake, you see
It's no good being all alone
You need someone to call your own
[Chorus]
I'll take care of you with all my heart and all my soul
I'll take care of you with all that's in me 'cause you are my love
[Verse 2]
This is a golden age of happiness
But to know it, really know it, you need togetherness
Take my hand, let me lead you girl
Let me show you, show you to my very world
[Chorus]
I'll take care of you, oh, just don't leave me baby
I'll take care of you with all that's in me, you are my love
Hey, I'll take care of you, you were born to love me, baby
I’ll Take Care of You was written by Holland-Dozier-Holland & Brian Holland & Lamont Dozier & Eddie Holland.
I’ll Take Care of You was produced by Holland-Dozier & Lamont Dozier & Brian Holland.
Marvin Gaye released I’ll Take Care of You on Tue Jun 13 1967.
Despite Marvin remembering it as “a good song”, him and Brian Holland nearly came to blows during the recording of this song:
Brian Holland and I got in quite an altercation because I wasn’t ready to go down and sing. I should have gone but I was doing something else that was of little consequence...
