Now when I'm down and all dejected
and everything's goin' wrong
I just call upon my mem'ry
and start dialin' on the phone
Cause she knows
when I'm in need of someone
to lend an ear
To listen to the problems
that my mind can only hear
And all I gotta do is let her know
and she'll be there
And I just lay it on my lady what's on my mind
And I just lay it on my lady what's on my mind
Well she can talk me into seein' anything I want to see
And build me up to be anyone I want to be
She whispers in my ear the things I like to hear her say
And she turns all my blue Mondays
into sunshiny days
And every time I need her
I can always find a way
To just lay it on my lady what's on my mind
I just lay it on my lady what's on my mind
Well I can hide myself inside her arms
and forget what's on my mind
Cause my troubles seem so far away
that I lose all track of time
Nothin' seems to matter anymore
Least not half as much
as it used to mean before
Cause when she's here
my worries seem to walk right out the door
And I just lay it on my lady what's on my mind
Yes I just lay it on my lady what's on my mind
Lay it on my lady what's on my mind
