Lay Me Down lyrics

[Verse 1: Loretta Lynn]

I raise my head and set my sail

In the eye of the storm and the belly of a whale

My spirit stood on solid ground

I'll be at peace when they lay me down

[Verse 2: Willie Nelson]

When I was a child I cried

Until my needs were satisfied

My needs have grown pound for pound

I'll be at peace when they let me down

[Chorus: Loretta & Willie]

When they lay me down someday

My soul will rise and fly away

This old world will turn around

I'll be at peace when then lay me down

[Verse 3: Loretta & Willie]

This life isn't fair it seems

It's filled with tears and broken dreams

There are no tears where I am bound

And I'll be at peace when they lay me down

[Chorus: Loretta & Willie]

When they lay me down someday

My soul will rise and fly away

This old world will turn around

I'll be at peace when then lay me down

When they lay me down someday

My soul will rise and fly away

This old world will turn around

I'll be at peace when then lay me down

When I was a child I cried
