Lay Down Your Burden Lyrics

Jesse Winchester Lay Down Your Burden

It's a cold old world
That we're walking through
Lay down the burden of your heart
But it's warm as toast
Walking two-by-two
Lay down the burden of your heart

Lay down the burden of your heart
I know you'll never miss it
Oh, show your Daddy where it hurts
And let your Daddy kiss it

It's a fine fine line between love and hate
It's tough to tell the two apart
But you know it's love
That I offer you
Lay down the burden of your heart

Lay down the burden of your heart
I know you'll never miss it
Oh, show your Daddy where it hurts
And let your Daddy kiss it

It's a cold old world
That we're walking through
They ought to tell you at the start
But what strength I have
Girl, I offer you
Lay down the burden of your heart

Lay down the burden of your heart
I know you'll never miss it
Oh, show your Daddy where it hurts
And let your Daddy kiss it
Oh, show your Daddy where it hurts
And let your Daddy kiss it
