Pay The Lay Lyrics
Every blue song in the world has the answer
So I'll tell you in the morning,
The words I mumbled into soft white pillows
On a sleepy autumn dawn
Oh well, we'll go to the market
Go to the market
Where the good weather goes
We leave our prints in a dusty closet
Oh we'll steal each other's clothes
There's a streetlamp on in the middle of the day
It's not too far out of our way
It's such a lovely day
What do you say?
Or I can always
Pay the woman on my way back home
Pay her on my way
Pay the lady on my way
Pay her on my way
Pay the woman on my way back home
If you let me go
So I'll tell you in the morning,
The words I mumbled into soft white pillows
On a sleepy autumn dawn
Oh well, we'll go to the market
Go to the market
Where the good weather goes
We leave our prints in a dusty closet
Oh we'll steal each other's clothes
It's not too far out of our way
It's such a lovely day
What do you say?
Pay the woman on my way back home
Pay her on my way
Pay the lady on my way
Pay her on my way
Pay the woman on my way back home
If you let me go

Pay The Lady
Every blue song in the world has the answers Well can I tell you in the morning? Words mumble into soft white pillows In that sleepy autumn dawn
We'll go to the market (We'll go to the market) When the good weather goes We'll leave prints in the dusty books And we'll steal each other clothes
There's a streetlamp on in the middle of the day Not too far out of our way And it's such a lovely day What do you say?
There's a streetlamp on in the middle of the day Not too far out of our way It's such a lovely day What do you say?
Well I can always Pay the woman on my way back home Pay her on my way Well I'll pay the woman on my way Well I'll pay her on my way I'll pay the woman on my way back home If you let me go home
Well every blue song in the world has the answers Well can I tell you in the morning? Words mumble into soft white pillows In that sleepy autumn dawn
We can climb the hill (We'll climb the hillside) And look over our town We'll sit and smoke and drink some tea And watch the sun go down We'll let the drink surround
There's a streetlamp on in the middle of the day Not too far out of our way It's such a lovely day What do you say?
There's a streetlamp on in the middle of the day Not too far out of our way It's such a lovely day What do you say?
I can always Pay the woman on my way back home Pay her on my way I'll pay the woman on my way Well I'll pay her on my way Pay the woman on my way back home If you let me go home
There's a streetlamp on in the middle of the day
This song's about Carl being a woman.
