Текст песни Laying My Burdens Down - Willie Nelson

I used to walk stooped
From the weight of my tears
But I just started layin′ my burdens down
I used to duck bullets from the rifle of fear
But I just started layin' my burdens down

Oh, I′m layin' 'em down
I just started layin′ my burdens down
Oh, I′m layin' ′em down
I just started layin' my burdens down

The flesh ain′t nothin' but the bark on the tree
I just started layin′ my burdens down
The tree isn't nothin' but the soul in me
I just started layin′ my burdens down

Oh, I′m layin' ′em down
I just started layin' my burdens down
Oh, I′m layin' ′em down
I just started layin' my burdens down

My soul took love on a hell of a ride
I just started layin' my burdens down
My soul ain′t nothin′, but the car love drives
I just started layin' my burdens down

Oh, I′m layin' ′em down
I just started layin' my burdens down
Oh, I′m layin' 'em down
I just started layin′ my burdens down

Love said, "Mama, can I come on home?"
I just started layin′ my burdens down
And God said, "Son, you ain't never been gone"
I just started layin′ my burdens down

Oh, I'm layin′ 'em down
I just started layin′ my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' ′em down
I just started layin′ my burdens down
