Lay It Down Songtext

von Journey

Lookin' 'round for a feelin', I love the 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 singing, rock the night away

By the midnight hour, they could've raised the dead
They were takin' it higher, higher, higher, higher, ringin' in my head

Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down, lay it down

Whisky, wine and women, they get me through the night
I ain't lookin' for trouble, I ain't lookin' to fight
A little vertical persuasion would do me right
What I'm really needin', ah, double shot tonight

By the midnight hour, we were on our way
She was takin' it higher, higher, higher, higher, then I heard her say

Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down, lay it down

(Solo)

By the midnight hour, we were on our way
She was takin' it higher, higher, higher, higher, then I heard her say

Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
