Lay down your cross
Cross off your day

Lie where you lay

Love let me love
Love let me love
Love let me love
Let me love her again
Love let me love
Let me love her again
Oh yeah
Kick off your feet
Twist off your head
Lady, lady
Burn all your clothes
And then let's go to bed
And get Lazy
Lady, Please, Please
Love let me love
Love let me love
Love let me love
Let me love her again
Love let me love
Let me love her again
Oh yeah
You don't see me drinking alone
Do you dear?
You don't see me drink on my own
Do you dear?
You don't see me drinking alone
Love let me love
Love let me love
Love let me love
Let me love her again
Love let me love

Let me love her again
Oh yeah
