Lay It Down Songtext
von Donnie Fritts

Traveling down two different roads
Trying hard to leave the load
We take it there, but we can′t let go
It's so hard to lay it down

Hide in me, confide in me
Don′t you think it's time to be
All the things you've tried to be
You and me should lay it down

Speak to me and be unashamed
There′s no need in playing games
After all, we′re just all the same
Trying hard to lay it down


I wish my word could make it well
I wish that I could break this shell
Take us from this self-made hell
Find a way to lay it down

I'm burdened by the things I′ve learned
I'm hurting because I′m too concerned
Nonetheless I confess I yearn
To find a way to lay it down

Lay it down, brother
It's so hard to lay it down
Lay it down, my sisters
You and me should lay it down
Lay it down
We′ve got to find a way to lay it down
