lay down

lay back

lay back and love

let the wind blow

coupled with its breeze

set your mind at ease

though it turn

to hurricane

though the earth shake,

and bad boogies,

so called men,

steal real men's

hearts

and dead men's bones,

and children too,

though they cause,

their own

quaking,

to rattle those,

who just want

to lay down, . . .

. . . in the end,

they will

go down,

way,

way, . . .

all the way down.

. . . stay in the pocket,

pray away,

death by tornado,

hailstone and fire, . . .

for the innocent,

the child,

the elderly,

the foolish,

and naïve,

lay back

lay back and love

lay back,

'cause the Lord,

the master of

all,

of nature's forces,

who obey him

will shelter you, . . .

peace be still,

lay back

lay back and love,

'cause those,

that cause,

havoc

in the streets

and yell,

demanding

what is not theirs,

twisting the arm

of what is law

what is right,

throwing tantrums

defiant, . . .

spreading violence,

. . .lay back

lay back and love

'cause the Lord,

the master of all things,

king of creation,

will lay us down

when it all goes down
