Sonia Dada Lay My Body Down
The water from the river
Flows throughout the town
It's the blood that keeps the earth alive
And turns the world around
Water from the fields
Makes a harvest in the ground
Float my body in the cool cool water
When I lay my body down
When I lay my body down
Lay my body down
Float my bones in the waters of the river
When I lay my body down
Water from the moon
Blood dripping from the sun
Sister lying sleeping in the sky
In the southern constellation
There is healing to be found
You know it's gonna be just quiet like the rain
When I lay my body down
When I lay my body down
Lay my body down
You know it's gonna be just quiet like the rain
When I lay my body down
Lay my body down
Lay my body down
Take my body to the waters of the river
When you lay my body down
Lay my body down
Lay my body down
Take my body to the waters of the river
When you lay my body down
Lay my body down
Lay my body down
Take my body to the waters of the river
When you lay my body down
