Lay Me Down
Lately I've been thinking
'bout the troubled state I'm in
Tonight I have been drinking
Just a glass too much again
My poor old heart, I soaked it
Because my baby broke it
Can some come
Pick me up
And lay me down
He said he had some work to do
In a town up in the north
But baby knew exactly
What he was coming for
Big blue eyes, two feeble minds
Slipped his hand under her skirt
And he went
Picked her up
And laid her down
If he were a coyboy
Back in old America
No one would be pleased to hear
That he'd been sleeping around, oh no
People would've called the sheriff
Star-shaped badge blinking in the sun
And he would come
Pick him up
And shoot him down
But that ain't ever gonna happen
This ain't old America
And looking at the fun he's having
Can sometimes bring me down
Those nights I don't wanna wake up
Thank god it's just a break up
Can someone come
Pick me up
And lay me down
Can someone come
Pick me up
And lay me down
'bout the troubled state I'm in
Tonight I have been drinking
Just a glass too much again
My poor old heart, I soaked it
Because my baby broke it
Can some come
Pick me up
And lay me down
He said he had some work to do
In a town up in the north
But baby knew exactly
What he was coming for
Big blue eyes, two feeble minds
Slipped his hand under her skirt
And he went
Picked her up
And laid her down
If he were a coyboy
Back in old America
No one would be pleased to hear
That he'd been sleeping around, oh no
People would've called the sheriff
Star-shaped badge blinking in the sun
And he would come
Pick him up
And shoot him down
But that ain't ever gonna happen
This ain't old America
And looking at the fun he's having
Can sometimes bring me down
Those nights I don't wanna wake up
Thank god it's just a break up
Can someone come
Pick me up
And lay me down
Can someone come
Pick me up
And lay me down
