lay it on my lady

now when i'm down and all dejected and everything's goin' wrong

i just call upon my mem'ry and start dialin' on the phone

cause she knows when i'm in need of someone to lend an ear

to listen to the problems that my mind can only hear

and all i gotta do is let her know and she'll be there

and i just lay it on my lady what's on my mind

and i just lay it on my lady what's on my mind

lay it on

well she can talk me into seein' anything i want to see

and build me up to be anyone i want to be

she whispers in my ear the things i like to hear her say

and she turns all my blue mondays into sunshiny days

and every time i need her i can always find a way

to just lay it on my lady what's on my mind

i just lay it on my lady what's on my mind

well i can hide myself inside her arms and forget what's on my mind

cause my troubles seem so far away that i lose all track of time

nothin' seems to matter anymore

least not half as much as it used to mean before

cause when she's here my worries seem to walk right out the door

and i just lay it on my lady what's on my mind

yes i just lay it on my lady what's on my mind

lay it on my lady what's on my min
