"I'll Take Care of You" is a song written by Brook Benton and originally recorded by Bobby Bland in 1959.
Elements of the original Bland recording were used for the track "Guardian Angel" by hip-hop artist Wordsworth and "Lyrics Files" by Akhenaton from the soundtrack of French action-comedy Taxi.
The song has been covered many times since by artists such as Van Morrison, Elvis Costello, Roy Hamilton, Jackie Payne, Etta James, Mick Hucknall, Irma Thomas, O. V. Wright, Mark Lanegan, Joe Bonamassa and Gil Scott-Heron.
B. Coleman included the song on his album One Night Stand.
