Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed    Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed    Whatever colors you have in your mind    I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine       Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed    Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile    Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile    His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean    And you're the best thing that he's ever seen       Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile    Why wait any longer for the world to begin    You can have your cake and eat it too    Why wait any longer for the one you love    When he's standing in front of you       Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed    Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead    I long to see you in the morning light    I long to reach for you in the night    Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
