Lay Me Down (feat. Rome)

Well this is how it starts

Two lovers in the dark

On the run from the one that they call Sheriff Spark

Six guns by their side

And bullets 'round their waist

Two shots to the sky signal sign for the chase

The safe was nearly empty and they were nearly free

But were seen by the good eye of the mean Billy Green

And he screamed at the top of his lungs, "They're on the run

It's the two wild siders, grab your holsters and your guns"

I said I wish that we could stay here

But I fear our time has come

We can ride out in the darkness

Chasin' the risin' sun

We gotta pack our bags this instant

We're headin' southbound to the next town

And if arrive there so safely

Baby, you can lay me down

Lay me down

Lay me down

Lay me down

Well, it's the story of the two

Always on the move

They got nothin' left to lose

'Cept the guns and they wounds

Now they're crossing borders

Sheriffs posse on they tail

They'd rather die together than be stuck up in a cell

They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night

Like it could be the last, the bounty said to shoot on sight

So they chased the endless summer, knew it came with the pride

They wouldn't stop runnin' till they found their paradise

But the sheriff finally found 'em with his eyes seeing red

So the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead

They were finally free to find a place to lay their head

And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said

I said I think that we can stay here

'Cause I feel our time has come

And we can walk down to the ocean

And sit with the risin' sun

So unpack your bags this instant

No more runnin' from town to town

And now that we've arrived so safely

Baby, you can lay me down

Lay me down

Lay me down

Lay me down

Well, you're my green eyed girl and

I been runnin' 'round with you

It's the afternoon and we got nothin' left to do

So wipe the dirt off or take your shirt off

And we should go hit the cantina, we got work off

I said it's hot outside, let me go swimmin' in your eyes

We been runnin' for a while, why don't you lay down, make me smile

I could never ask for nothin' better than this

It's just tequila and the beach, that's why it's salty when we kiss

I said I think that we can stay here

'Cause I feel our time has come

And we can walk down to the ocean

And sit with the risin' sun

So unpack your bags this instant

No more running from town to town

And now that we've arrived so safely

Baby, you can lay me down

Lay me down

Lay me down, no

Lay me down

Lay me down
