[00:00.00]Lay My Body Down (Album Version) - The Philosopher Kings
[00:24.46]So I came all the way from Trenton
[00:26.83]
[00:27.65]Spent a full night at the station
[00:30.52]In a suitcase made of Calico Brown
[00:33.90]
[00:36.15]Now I'm almost out of money and I'm sleepy and hungry
[00:41.77]I wanna lay my body down
[00:46.46]
[00:47.83]I don't wanna cause trouble
[00:50.08]
[00:50.71]I don't need a bath of bubbles
[00:53.15]
[00:53.77]Just a floorboard for the pavement on the ground
[00:57.83]
[00:58.90]I'll take a steeple or a stable or a dining room table
[01:04.96]Just to lay my body down
[01:09.10]
[01:10.81]Lay lay my body down
[01:20.74]
[01:22.43]Lay lay my body down
[01:33.12]
[01:33.99]So I go back to see my baby since no other place'll take me
[01:39.62]When I stop to brush my hair back with a comb
[01:43.89]
[01:45.39]I can almost see our porch light and it's shining like a northern light
[01:51.45]God how I wanna be home
[01:55.89]
[01:56.95]To lay lay my body down
[02:07.25]
[02:08.50]Lay lay my body down oh
[02:19.25]
[03:06.57]But some joke from Albuquerque with some white wine and a turkey
[03:12.38]Came to entertain my girl while I was gone
[03:17.01]
[03:17.63]This bear thinks everything is funny
[03:20.76]He's got his paws into my honey
[03:23.69]Then he lay her body down
[03:28.63]Just as every schoolyard has a teacher
[03:31.95]
[03:32.70]Every chapel has a preacher
[03:34.88]
[03:35.70]Every angry man has 6 shells to a round
[03:40.63]Oh I've been an honest man
[03:43.63]I've walked as straight as I can
[03:46.45]I'm gonna lay his body down
[03:51.32]
[03:52.38]Lay lay his body down
[04:02.14]
[04:03.76]Lay lay his body down
[04:13.88]
[04:15.13]Lay lay his body down
[04:25.57]
[04:26.57]Lay lay his body down
