Lyrics Lay Me Down

Ho, woah, hoo, ho ho, ho, no, no hmm hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm

Ho, woah, hoo, ho ho, ho, no, oh hmm, hmm

Well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark on the run

From the one that they call

Sheriff Sparks

Six guns by the side and bullets 'round their waist

Two shots to the sky signal sign for the chase

The safe is nearly empty and they were nearly free

But were seen by the good eye of the mean

Billy Queen

And he screamed at the top of his lungs they're on the run

It's the two outsiders grab your horses and your guns

I said I wish that we could stay here but I fear our time is come

We could ride out in the darkness chasing the rising sun

We gotta pack our bags this instant we're headin' southbound til the next town

And if we arrive there so safely baby you could 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 got nothing left to lose 'cept their guns and their wounds

Now they're crossing borders sheriff's posse 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'

They're chasing in the summer, knew it came with a price

They wouldn't stop running til they found the 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 he finally did he looked at her and then he said

I said I think that we can stay here 'cos 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

Well you're my green eyed girl and I been running round with you

It's the afternoon and we got nothing left to do

So wipe the dirt off, and 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

We been running for awhile why don't you lay down make me smile

I could never ask for nothing better than this

It's just tequila and the beach it's why it's salty when we kiss

I said I think that we can stay here 'cos 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, no lay me down, lay me down
