Lay Me Down - Machinedrum

Well this is how it starts Two lovers in the dark

On the run, from the one That they called Sheriff Spark

Six guns by their side and Bullets around the waist

Two shots to the sky Sing the sound for the chase

The safe was nearly empty and They were nearly free

But were seen by the Good eye of the mean Billie Green

And he screamed at the top of his lungs They’re on the run

It’s the two wild siders Grab your horses and your gunsI said I wish that

We could stay here

But I fear our time has come

We could ride out in the darkness

Chasing the rising sun

We gotta pack out bags this instant

We’re heading south-bound to the next town

And if we all arrive there so safely

Baby you canLay 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

Sheriffs 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 shoot on sight

So they chased the endless summer Though it came with the pride

They wouldn’t stop running till They found a paradise

But the sheriff finally found them with his eyes seeing red

So the lovers had to shoot him down And fill em full of lead

They were finally free To find a place to lay their head

And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said.

I said I think that

we can stay here

Cause 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 arrive so safely

Baby you canLay me down…

Lay me down…

Lay me down…

Lay me down… Well you’re my green-eyed girl And I’ve been running around with

you

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

So wipe the dirt off, eh Take 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’ve been running for a while

Why don’t you lay it on and make smile

I could never ask for nothing better than this

It’s just tequila and the beach, thats why its salty when we kiss.

I said I think that we can stay here

Cause 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 arrive so safely

Baby you canLay me down…

Lay me down…

Lay me down…

Lay me down… Lay me down…
