Lay Your Lovin' On Me - Bobby Womack

Lay it on me, babe

Keep on layin' it on me, baby

There was a time

When I thought I had the world on a string

But the only thing I had in my possession

Was all built around, built around materialistic things

You can’t miss what you never, never, never had

So why go around pretending

That you’re happy when you know that you’re sad?

Keep on layin' it on me, baby (lay your lovin' me)

That’s all you gotta do, girl (lay it on me, baby)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, lay it on me, baby (lay your lovin' on me)

Just keep on layin' it on me, baby

But then you came along bringing

Bringing sweet love, sweet love, sweet love to me

Oh, then I knew, I knew I was missing

True love I needed desperately, hey

(Lay your lovin' on me

Lay your lovin' on me

Keep on layin' it on me, baby

Lay your lovin' on me

Lay your lovin' on me

Keep on layin' it on me, baby)

There was a time

When I was thrown up in the night life

Mr. Big Time Spendin'

Oh, I must have been the world’s greatest pretender

But when the money went

I know y’all know how the crown can get thin

But it was all because of your love

Your love that got me started again

So keep on (lay your lovin' on me)

That’s what ya do for me, girl (lay your lovin' on me)

(Just keep on layin' it on me, baby)

When I go you wanna call you want me home, girl

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me)

(Just keep on layin' it on me, baby)

I don’t just wanna go down now if the sun never shine again, keep lovin'

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me)

(Just keep on layin' it on me, baby) You see, you see, you see I’d be a,

I’d be a, I’d be a fool

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me) To give you up now

Just keep layin' it on me, baby

Lay, lady, lay, lay, lay

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me)

(Just keep on layin' it on me, baby)

You see what I like about you, girl

You build me up, you build me up when I’m falling down

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me)

(Just keep on layin' it on me, baby) Spreading love, spreading love all around

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me) Lay-lady-lay, lay-lady-lay

(Just keep on layin' it on me, baby) Ooh

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me)

Do that for me, girl

And I’ll definitely promise you one thing

I’ll give you what you want when you want it where you want it and how you want

it

But every doggone time that you feel you need my love, oh

Keep on

(Lay your lovin' on me, lay your lovin' on me)
