Baby, Let Me Lay It On You

(Rev. Gary Davis version)

Words & Music:

Mance Lipscomb

 

The Rev. Gary Davis CD "Blues & Ragtime" has tabs of most of the songs on the CD, including "Hesistation Blues", "Walking Dog Blues" and this one.  It is worth the price of the CD just for the tabs!

 

G                   G7    C                      C7

Baby, let lay it on you.  Baby, let me lay it on you.

           G     D             G           E7

Well, I'll do anything in this Godalmighty world

       A7          D7        G

If you just let me lay it on you.

 

Can I come home with you, baby, can I come home with you?

Yes, I'd do anything in this Godalmighty world

If you just let me come home with you.

 

Baby, let me follow you down, baby, let me follow you down,

Well, I'll do anything in this Godalmighty world

If you just let me follow you down.

 

Yes, I'll do anything in this Godalmighty world

If you just let me follow you down.
