Lay It All On Me
Ruby's got a brother
Her brother's got a lover
His lover's got another on the side
Ain't nobody's business
We all need forgiveness
It's been laying heavy on my mind
If you got a secret, baby I can keep it
Lock it up and swallow the key
'Cause everybody's got a little something to hide
You can lay it all on me
Her mama used the Bible
Her daddy used the bottle
Revival and survival made her run
She's using just a little
Of both here in the middle
I know exactly where she's coming from
If you got a secret, baby I can keep it
Lock it up and swallow the key
'Cause everybody's got a little something to hide
You can lay it all on me
Covering my tracks and sneaking on the sly
It's getting hard to look my Ruby in the eye
She caught us shackin' up at a dirty motel
Says she's gonna send us both straight to hell
It's complicated ain't it
I wish I could explain it
It wouldn't make no difference if I tried
Now Ruby and her brother
Say one way or another
I'm running out of places I can hide
If you know a secret, you best know how to keep it
Lock it up and swallow the key
'Cause everybody's got a little something to hide
You can lay it all on me
Yeah, you can lay it all on me, oh now
Yeah, you can lay it all on me
Her brother's got a lover
His lover's got another on the side
Ain't nobody's business
We all need forgiveness
It's been laying heavy on my mind
If you got a secret, baby I can keep it
Lock it up and swallow the key
'Cause everybody's got a little something to hide
You can lay it all on me
Her mama used the Bible
Her daddy used the bottle
Revival and survival made her run
She's using just a little
Of both here in the middle
I know exactly where she's coming from
If you got a secret, baby I can keep it
Lock it up and swallow the key
'Cause everybody's got a little something to hide
You can lay it all on me
Covering my tracks and sneaking on the sly
It's getting hard to look my Ruby in the eye
She caught us shackin' up at a dirty motel
Says she's gonna send us both straight to hell
It's complicated ain't it
I wish I could explain it
It wouldn't make no difference if I tried
Now Ruby and her brother
Say one way or another
I'm running out of places I can hide
If you know a secret, you best know how to keep it
Lock it up and swallow the key
'Cause everybody's got a little something to hide
You can lay it all on me
Yeah, you can lay it all on me, oh now
Yeah, you can lay it all on me
