Lyrics:
Listen easy, you can hear God calling
Walking barefoot by the stream
Come on to me, Your hair's softly falling
On my face as in a dream
But if you've got a nickel, won't you lay your money down?
Over on the corner there's a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy
anywhere that you can't go
I lay your ass down by a halo
Southside, G-Road, that Clayco
Can't forget about Heaven and Harmony
Ain't nobody out there
my boat
Floatin' down the Flint River
Catch us up a little catfish dinner
Gonna sound like a winner
When I lay you down and love you right
Yeah,
down
(Like a bridge)
Just like a bridge
(Over troubled) over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come
I need you, need you by my side
Lonely evenings, eyes are open wide
Nothing you say could make me turn my back
Well I see you, and you see me too
bottle of booze
My baits a' runnin a little low
Man a box of 12 gauge would be all the rage
I'm all liquored up and I'm feelin' good
Well just down
the lamb and the lion
We lay down in peace like air to the fire
I need you to breathe
By the rules I play by the rules I play
By the rules I play let nature
Betrayed, by the one who says she loves you
By the one who says she needs you - above all other men
Betrayed, by her fragile, vicious beauty
Her
came here for
I'm goin' up on the mountain
Up on the hill
Lay down by the river
Let the water be still
I'll open my eyes
See what I see
you've loved someone else?
You know just what I'd do
If my love for you meant giving up my life
Would I lay it down for you?
And if you were blind
to do it on occasion
And engagin in .44s and 12-gauges
Some old suckers lay the beat twice as hard
And when you see I got 20'000 bodyguards
I came
The earlier version by the Hart Valley Drifters is:
I am a roving gambler
I've gambled all around
Wherever I meet with a deck of cards
I lay my money down
Lay
the innocent
Peak season in lonely town
Knocked out of the ring by love
Are you down and up
Or up and down
I ask the river for a sign
(In a dream,
still gotta let that trunk knock
Hear me beatin down yo block
And my car just stopped again
Mayne, my gas gauge don't work
I can't tell how much gas I got
could run with Puff
I came to put you down shorty so what the fuck is up
Since I met her she can't keep that pussy off me
On the pill, Ima kill that
to spare
Just victims are left to bleed
One drink and the pain goes down
Soft shadows lay by her feet
Lay soft as you slowly drown
Lay still as you fall
done
And all my cares are laid by
I'll lay down my soul, my battles are won
I'll walk dem golden stairs when I die when I die
Well, well, well
I'm
with the fifth dog finna parlay
Everyday storming your way
You better lay low
So you might just duck when I buck gauge
Can't you see my niggas having
to care.
it was lipstick for breakfast,
and fine wine in a glass, resentments in the mirror, ther
No way you can last. lay your money,
lay your money down
If you hear old Hank rockin'
A 12 gauge cockin'
You don't have to call the cops on me
Go back to sleep
There's no need to be alarmed
I know it's
Bumpin new shit by NWA
It was "Gangsta Gangsta" at the top of the list
Then I played my own shit, it went somethin like this:
Cruisin down the street in
the distance, you know I'm ten toes down
Even if master listenin', cover your ears, he 'bout to mention
Complexion (two-step)
Complexion don't mean a thing
Hey fellas, have you heard the news?
You know that Annie's back in town?
It won't take long just watch and see
How the fellas lay their money down
