Laying My Burdens Down

Well I used to walk stooped From the weight of my tears I just started laying my burdens down I used to duck bullets from the rifle of fear I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' 'em down I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' em down I just started laying my burdens down The flesh ain't nothing but the bark on a tree I just started laying my burdens down The tree ain't nothing but the soul in me I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' 'em down I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' em down I just started laying my burdens down My soul took love on a hell of a ride I just started laying my burdens down A soul ain't nothing but the car love drives I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' 'em down I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' em down I just started laying my burdens down Love said Mama can I come on home I just started laying my burdens down And God said son you ain't never been gone I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' 'em down I just started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' em down I just started laying my burdens down --- Laying My Burdens Down - Willie Nelson
