Lyrics The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

Lay lady lay

Lay lady lay, lay across my big brass bed

Lay lady lay, lay across my big brass bed

Whatever colors you have, in your mind

I'll show them to you, and you'll see them shine

Lay lady lay, lay across my big brass bed

Stay lady stay, 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're 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 while the night is still ahead

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.
