Ruby red her lips were on fire. Do me with a kiss if you please. Tell me what your sweet heart desires. Tell me how you want it to be. 'Cause if it's love you want. Then you won't mind. A little tenderness. That sometimes is so hard to find. (Lay it down). Lay it down. Make it alright. (Lay it down). Lay it down. I'll hold you so tight. (Lay it down). Oh before the morning light. It's gonna be alright. Oh lay it down. Come and lay it down tonight. Tell me how you feel when we make love. Tell me is it real or just make believe. You will never know what you're made of. Til you open up your heart to recieve. 'Cause if the love you got's that same old crime. We're talkin' tenderness. That's so hard to find. And I'm getting behind you. (Lay it down). Lay it down. Make it alright. (Lay it down). Lay it down. I'll hold you so tight. (Lay it down). Oh before the morning light. It's gonna be alright. Oh lay it down. Come and lay it down tonight. Do you remember them times. Talkin' in your sleep. With a pocket full of promise. You never could keep. From your best friend's lover. You dreamt about in bed. When you pullin' up the covers. The voices in your head. Say if you want it bad. Don't ever let it slip away. 'Cause if it's love you want and tenderness. Yeah. (Lay it down). Lay it down. Make it alright. (Lay it down). Lay it down. I'll hold you so tight. (Lay it down). Oh before the morning light. It's gonna be alright. Oh lay it down. Come and lay it down tonight. Oh lay it down. Gonna lay it down tonight. Gonna come around tonight. You gotta lay it down.
