Well I used to walk stooped from the weight of my

Tears I just started laying my burdens down I used

To duck bullets from the rifle of fear I just

Started laying my burdens down Oh I'm layin' 'em

Down I just started laying my burdens down Oh lay

I'm layin' em down I just started laying my

Burdens down

The flesh ain't nothing but the bark on a tree I

Just started laying my burdens down The tree ain't

Nothing but the soul in me I just started laying

My burdens down Oh I'm layin' 'em down

Just started laying my burdens down on I'm laying down

My soul took love on a hell of a ride I just

Started laying my burdens down A soul ain't

Nothing but the car love drives I just started

Laying my burdens down

Oh I'm layin' 'em down

Just started laying my burdens down oh I'm laying down

Just started laying my burdens down

Love said Mama can I come on home I just started

Laying my burdens down And God said son you ain't

Never been gone I just started laying my burdens down

Oh I'm laying down

Just started laying my burdens down

Oh i'm laying down

Down Oh I'm layin' 'em down
