Asleep At The Wheel
"Lay Down Sally" lyrics

Lay Down Sally

There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with me
I know you've got somewhere to go
But won't you make yourself at home
And stay with me?
And don't you ever leave

Lay down, Sally
And rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally
No need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long
Just to talk to you

The sun ain't nearly on the rise
And we still got the moon and stars above
Underneath the velvet skies
Love is all that matters
Won't you stay with me?
And don't you ever leave

Lay down, Sally
And rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally
No need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long
Just to talk to you

I long to see the morning light
Coloring your face so dreamily
So don't you go and say goodbye
You can lay your worries down
And stay with me
And don't you ever leave

Lay down, Sally
And rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally
No need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long
Just to talk to you

Lay down, Sally
And rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally
No need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long
Just to talk to you
