Lyrics David Allan Coe

David Allan Coe

Would You Be My Lady

Would you hold on to my hand when I get lonely

Could I come to you whenever I'm in need

Would you always have a place for me to lay my body down

Would you be my lady, in the morning

Would you be lady

Would you walk with me across the bridges I forgot to burn

Could you face the future looking at my past

If I took the time to teach you all the things you'll need to learn

To be my lady, when I need you

Would you be my lady

Does it matter to you that you're not my first love

Would you let a thing like that stand in your way

If I said you was the woman that could ease my troubled mind

Would you be my lady, when I need you

Would you be my lady

Would you walk with me across the bridges I forgot to burn

Could you face the future looking at my past

If I took the time to teach you all things you'll need to learn

To be my lady, in the morning

Would you be my lady

Would you always have a place for me to lay my body down
