Lay, Lady, lay,
Lay across my big brass bed.
Lay, Lady, lay,
Lay across my big brass bed.

What ever colours you have
in your mind,
I’ll 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.

His clothes are dirty, but his hands are clean
and you’re the best thing that he’s 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 he’s standing in front of you.

Lay across my big brass bed.
Stay, Lady, stay...

I long to see you in the morning light,
I long to reach for you in the night.

Stay, Lady, stay
stay while the night is still ahead.

Lay, Lady, lay...
stay...stay...ah! Oh!
