Lay It Down

[Verse 1]

Looking round' for a feelin'

I love rhythm and blues

The place was rockin' and reelin'

I thought I'd shake me loose

The band was pumpin' Motown

Lord how they could play

The girls a-started singin'

Rock the night away

[Pre-Chorus]

By the midnight hour

They could'a raised the dead

They were taking it higher

Higher, higher, higher

Ringin' in my head

[Chorus]

(Lay it down) Lay it down

(Lay it down) Lay it

(Lay it down) Lay it down

(Lay it down)

[Verse 2]

Whisky, wine and women

They get me through the night

I ain't looking for trouble

I ain't looking to fight

A little vertical persuasion

Would do me right

What I'm really needin'

A double shot tonight

[Pre-Chorus]

By the midnight hour

We were on our way

She was taking it higher

Higher, higher, higher

Then I heard her say

[Chorus]

(Lay it down) Lay it down

(Lay it down) Lay it, lay it

(Lay it down) Lay it down

(Lay it down)

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

By the midnight hour

We were on our way

She was taking it higher

Higher, higher, higher

Then I heard her say

Ah-ooh

[Chorus]

(Lay it down) Lay it down

(Lay it down) Oh yeah, yeah

(Lay it down) Baby, lay it down

(Lay it down) La, la, la, lay it

(Lay it down) Lay it down

(Lay it down) La, la, la, lay it

(Lay it down) Lay it down

(Lay it down) Oh yeah
