philosopher kings - lay my body down lyrics
so i came all the way from trenton, spent a full night at the station
in a suitcase made of calico brown
now i’m almost out of money and i’m sleepy and hungry
i wanna lay my body down
i don’t wanna cause trouble, i don’t need a bath of bubbles
just a floorboard for the pavement on the ground
i’ll take a steeple or a stable or a dining room table
just to lay my body down
lay, lay my body down
lay, lay my body down
so i go back to see my baby, since no other place’ll take me
when i stop to brush my hair back with a comb
i can almost see our porch light and it’s shining like a northern light
god how i wanna be home
to lay, lay my body down
lay, lay my body down, oh
but some joke from albuquerque with some white wine and a turkey
came to entertain my girl while i was gone
this bear thinks everything is funny, he’s got his paws into my honey
then he lay her body down
just as every schoolyard has a teacher, every chapel has a preacher
every angry man has 6 sh-lls to a round
oh, i’ve been an honest man, i’ve walked as straight as i can
i’m gonna lay his body down
lay, lay his body down
lay, lay his body down
lay, lay his body down
lay, lay his body down
