lay down, lay down
no more running 'round
sleep away the morning hours
lay down, lay down

sparrows sings, ears ring
my baby doesn't hear a thing
work that long or find a way
lay down, sleep another day

lay down, lay down
no more running 'round
sleep away the morning hours
lay down, lay down

every muscle vein and bone
answer to that endless drone
i can hear my old machine
still running, even in my dreams

lay down, lay down
no more running 'round
sleep away the morning hours
lay down, lay down

(repeat chorus)
