[Intro]
Lay it on me, babe (Ooh)
Lay it on me, babe (Ah)
Keep on layin' it on me, baby (Mm, yeah, baby)
Lay it on me, babe (Don’t stop)
Lay it on me, babe (Ah)
Keep on layin' it on me, baby

[Verse 1]
There was a time
When I thought I had the world on a string
But the only thing I had in my possession
Was all built around, built around materialistic things
You can't miss what you never, never, never had
So why go around pretending
That you’re happy, when you know that you're sad?

[Chorus]
Keep on layin it on me, baby (Lay your lovin' on me)
That's all you gotta do, girl (Lay it on me, baby)
Woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh-oh
Lay it on me, baby (Lay your lovin' on me)
(Lay your lovin' on me)
Just keep on layin' it on me, baby

[Verse 2]
But then you came along bringing
Bringing sweet love, sweet love, sweet love to me (Ah)
Oh, then I knew, I knew I was missing
True love I needed desperately, oh
[Chorus]
Lay your lovin' on me
Lay your lovin’ on me
Keep on layin’ it on me, baby
Lay your lovin' on me
Lay your lovin’ on me
Keep on layin' it on me, baby

[Verse 3]
There was a time, when I was growin' up in the night life
Mr. Big-Time Spender
Lord, I must have been the world's greatest pretender
But when the money went, I know y’all know how the crowd can get thin (Ah)
But it was all because of your love
Your love that got me started again
So keep on

[Chorus]
Lay your lovin' on me (That's what ya do for me, girl)
Lay your lovin' on me
Just keep on layin' it on me, baby
When I'm cold, and when I'm cold, you warm me up, girl
Lay your lovin' on me
Lay your lovin' on me
Just keep on layin it on me, baby
I don't give a darn, now, if the sun never shine again, keep lovin'
Lay your lovin' on me
Lay your lovin' on me
Just keep on layin' it on me, baby
You see, you see, you see, I'd be a, I'd be a, I'd be a fool to give you up, now
Lay your lovin' on me
Lay your lovin' on me
Just keep layin it on me, baby (Just keep layin it on me, baby)
Lady, lady, lady, lady, lady, lady
Lay your lovin' on me (Lady)
Lay your lovin' on me (Just lay your lovin' on me)
Just keep on layin' it on me, baby
You see what I like about you, girl
You build me up, you build me up when I'm falling down (Lay your lovin' on me)
Lay your lovin' on me
Keep on layin it on me, baby
Spreading love, spreading love all around
Lay your lovin' on me (Lady, lady, lady)
Lay your lovin' on me (Lady, lady, lady)
Just keep on layin' it on me, ooh
[Outro]
Lay your lovin' on me
Lay your lovin' on me
Do that for me, girl (Just keep on layin' it on me, baby)
And I'll definitely promise you one thing
I'll give you what you want
Lay your lovin' on me
When you want it, where you want it and how you want it (Lay your lovin' on me)
And every doggone time that you feel you need my love
Oh, keep on
Lay your lovin' on me
Lay your lovin' on me
