It's been a bad, bad week with the Devil in town
And all my friends on the floor
There's been a flood, and a fire, and a break of the plague
And all the X's on the doors
But then the golden fruit at the top of the hill came a' rollin' to my feet
Oh, heavens I can't lie, Father, what can I say?
Well, it just tasted so sweet
God give me more, oh, oh

It's been a bad, bad week with the Devil in town
And all my friends on the floor
I got a feelin' that it really hasn't even begun
We've been abandoned, we've been moored
But then the golden fruit at the top of the hill
Well, it whispered out my name
Oh, heavens, I can't lie, Father, what can I say?
I will never be the same, God give me more
Lay, lay me down, lay me down
God is broken, everyone is reaching for the crown
Lay me down, lay me down
It's been a bad, bad week with the devil in town
The broken lives along the floor
Oh, well, baby, Jesus save me tonight
The angels falling by the score
He's raising Hell tonight from the breaking of dawn until the sun falls to the sea
Oh, heaven help us now Saints and lovers above
Will the angels rescue me? God give me hope
Lay, lay me down, lay me down
God is broken, everyone is reaching for the crown
Lay me down, lay me down, save me now
Lay me down
Heaven help us, Mother Mary, save us, we've been found
Lay me down, lay me down, whoa
Heaven help us
Heaven help us now
Lay, lay me down, lay me down
God is broken, everyone is reaching for the crown
Lay me down, lay me down, save me now
Lay me down
Heaven help us, Mother Mary, save us, we've been found
Lay me down, lay me down
