Lay Them Down

Yeah!Mischief in motion

Seemed innocent enough

Wild-eyed devotion

Now you can't give it upBack on your feet again

You call it luck

You justify anything

Rather than give it upIt should not have to be so hard

You don't see it in the cardsLay them down, lay them down, lay them down

You don't need them anymore

Lay them down, lay them down, lay them down

Hey, hey, heyThe only prayer the gambler prays

Is that his face won't show his hand

He's perfected a way

To shut out everythingThere's a fire where the children are

But you refuse to see the flames

They try to warn you, baby

But you won't leave your gameIt should not have to be so hard

You don't see it in the cards, heyLay them down, lay them down, lay them down

You don't need them anymore

Lay them down, lay them down, lay them down

Put 'em down!You can't think of folding your hand

You can't think of walking away

Not till you win one more game

Then you won't need it anymore

Won't need anymoreIt should not have to be so hard

You don't see it in the cards, oohLay them down, lay them down, lay them down

It should not have to be so hard

Lay them down, lay them down, lay them down, yeahLay them down, lay them down, lay them down

Oh, oh, oh

Lay them down, lay them down, lay them down

Come on!

Lay them down

Yeah!
