Buck Owens - Roll Out the Red Carpet

I'm Layin' It On the Line

I'll lay it on the line
I'm a-gonna make you mine
I think I better warn you
It's only just a matter of time
You're as good as gone
Or my name ain't Don
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a-layin' it on the line

Well, the first time I looked
Into your big brown eyes
You really gave me a thrill
You were pretty and sweet
And everything neat
And dressed up fit to kill

I knew right then I had to win
Your heart and I don't mean maybe
I'll lay it on the line
And I gotta make you my baby

I'll lay it on the line
I'm a-gonna make you mine
I think I better warn you
It's only just a matter of time
You're as good as gone
Or my name ain't Don
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a-layin' it on the line

Well, I'm just a homegrown country man
That ain't been much to school
Oh, but I don't take much of schoolin' and such
To know that I want you
Yeah, I can feel a need in me
Without you dear, I'm a hurtin'
I'll lay it on the line
I gotta have you for certain

I'll lay it on the line
I'm a-gonna make you mine
I think I better warn you
It's only just a matter of time
You're as good as gone
Or my name ain't Don
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a-layin' it on the line

Yeah, I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a-layin' it on the line
