If it gets too heavy, yeah, too heavy
Gonna bring you to the ground
Lay your burdens down, down, down, down
Lay your burdens down
(Ooh, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah) Yeah

(Ooh)

It's a heavy weight

Oh, yeah



It's a heavy weight

On a rainy day

We've bankrupted our spirits from all the bills we have to pay

I said, "Hey, now" (Hey, now)

What you say when the pressure gonna come around?

My mama told me, "Baby"

"You've gotta lay your burdens down"



Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down

Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down

If it gets too heavy, yeah, too heavy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Gonna bring you to the ground

Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down



From the sharpest fangs

A good heart can harden

We've paralyzed compassion, we need to cast snakes from the garden

I said, "Hey, now" (Hey, now)

What you say when the pressure's gonna come around? (Alright)

My mama told me, "Baby"

"You've gotta lay your burdens down"



Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down

Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down

If it gets too heavy, yeah, too heavy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Gonna bring you to the ground

Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down (Oh, yeah)



Ooh, ooh

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, ooh, yeah (Yeah)

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, yeah



Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down

Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down

If it gets too heavy, yeah, too heavy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Gonna bring you to the ground

Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down (Lay your burdens down)



Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down (Lay your burdens down)

Lay your burdens down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down (Aw, hey)

In the morning (In the morning)

In the evening (In the evening)

Lay 'em down, down, down, down

Lay your burdens down
