Lay Me Down - Georgie Fame[00:00:00]
Written by:P. PICKETT[00:00:01]
Let us find a better way[00:00:15]
My father said in silent prayer[00:00:21]
Let the light of love[00:00:27]
Peace be everywhere[00:00:30]
Let us learn to take our share[00:00:34]
The day he passed away[00:00:40]
Before he died[00:00:45]
I heard him say[00:00:49]
The lord's light shines on me[00:00:53]
Lay me down by that old railroad track[00:00:59]
Lay me down with the world at my back[00:01:05]
Spent my life and broke[00:01:11]
My back in slavery[00:01:13]
Lay me down and let me be free[00:01:17]
All our lives a guiding hand[00:01:24]
He worked his heart out on the land[00:01:29]
From the morning sun[00:01:35]
Until the day was done[00:01:38]
The good lord gave him[00:01:42]
Strength to carry on[00:01:43]
The city took his land away[00:01:49]
But not half the crops[00:01:54]
He had to pay[00:01:58]
Get down on your knees and pray[00:02:02]
Lay me down by that old railroad track[00:02:07]
Lay me down with the world at my back[00:02:14]
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery[00:02:20]
Lay me down let me be free[00:02:26]
Lay me down by that old railroad track[00:02:32]
Lay me down with the world at my back[00:02:38]
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery[00:02:44]
Lay me down let me be free[00:02:51]
Sing it children[00:02:54]
Lay me down by that old railroad track[00:02:57]
That's where I wanna be[00:03:01]
Lay me down with the world at my back[00:03:03]
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery[00:03:09]
Lay me down let me be free[00:03:15]
C'mon children[00:03:19]
Lay me down by that old railroad track[00:03:21]
Lay me down with the world at my back[00:03:28]
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery[00:03:34]
Lay me down let me be free[00:03:40]
