Lay, lady, lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Lay, lady, lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Whatever colours you have in your mind
I show them to you and you'll see them shine
Lay, lady, lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay
Stay with your man a while
Until the break of day
Let me see you make him smile
Your clothes are dirty but your hands are clean
And I'm the best thing that you've ever seen
Stay, lady, stay
Stay with your man a while
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
You can have your cake and eat it too
Why wait any longer for the one you love
When I'm standing in front of you
Lay, lady, lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay
Stay with your man a while
You long to see me in the morning light
You going to reach for me in the night
Stay, lady, stay
Stay while the night is still ahead
So maybe I'll stay
Stay while the night is still ahead
