Lay Me Down |
Well this is how it starts |
Two lovers in the dark |
On the run from the one that they call sheriff spark |
Six guns by their side |
And bullets round their waist |
Two shots to the sky signals signs for the chase |
The safe was nearly empty and they were nearly free |
But were seen by the good eye |
Of the mean billy green |
And he screamed at the top of his lungs |
«they're on the run!» |
It’s the two wild siders |
Grab your holsters and your guns |
I said I wish that we could stay here |
But I fear our time has come |
We can ride out in the darkness |
Chasing the rising sun |
We gotta pack our bags this instant |
Were heading southbound to the next town |
And if we arrive there so safely |
Baby you can lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
Well it’s the story of the two |
Always on the move |
They’ve got nothing left to lose |
Except their guns and their wounds |
Now they’re crossing borders |
Sheriffs pose on their tail |
They’d rather die together than be stuck up in a cell |
They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night |
Like it could be the last |
The bounty said to shoot on sight |
So they chasing through the summer, though it came with the pride |
They wouldn’t stop running til they found a paradise |
But the sheriff finally found them |
With his eyes seeing red |
So the lovers had to shoot him down |
and fill him full of lead |
They were finally free to find a place to lay their head |
And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said |
I said I think that we can stay here |
Cuz I feel our time has come |
And we can walk down to the ocean |
And sit with the rising sun |
So unpack your bags this instant |
No more running from town to town |
And now that we’ve arrived so safely |
Baby you can lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
well you’re my green eyed girl and I’ve been running round with you |
It’s the afternoon and we’ve got nothin left to do So wipe the dirt off or take your shirt off |
And we should go hit the cantina we got work off |
I said it’s hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes |
Weve been running for a while |
Why don’t you lay down and make me smile |
I could never ask for nothing better than this |
It’s just tequila and the beach that’s why it’s salty when we kiss |
I said I think that we can stay here |
Cuz I feel our time has come |
And we can walk down to the ocean and sit with the rising sun |
So unpack your bags this instant no more running from town to town |
And now that weve arrived so safely baby you can lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
Lay me down |
