Lay Lady Lay

Lay lady lay,

lay across my big brass bed,

Stay lady stay,

lay across my big brass bed.

Whatever colours you have in your mind

I show them to you and you see them shine

Lay lady lay,

stay with your man a while.

Until the break of day,

Let me see you make him smile

His clothes are dirty but his, his hands are clean

And you are the best thing that he's ever seen

Stay lady stay,

stay with your man a while.

Why wait any longer for the world to begin

You can have your cake and eat it, too

Why wait any longer for the one you love

When he's standing in front of you,

Lay lady lay,

lay across my big brass bed,

Stay lady stay,

stay with your man a while.

I long to see you in the morning light

I long to reach for you in the night

Stay lady stay,

stay while the night is still ahead

So maybe I stay,

stay while the night is still ahead

Stay lady stay,

stay while the night is still ahead

So maybe I stay,

stay while the night is still ahead
