Roll Over Lay Down

Status Quo · Live At Montreux 2009 [2011]

When I got home that night early one morning

Seeing the note written in ink pinned to the door

Drinking the drink cold from the fridge on the table

I drank a toast you were the most the night before

Roll over lay down and let me in

Roll over it's a long way where I've been

Roll over lay down and let me in

Roll over lay down



When I get home tomorrow night after this morning

Show me the care you showed in the note the night before

Maybe I won't take a drink from the table

Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor

Roll over lay down and let me in

Roll over it's a long way where I've been

Roll over lay down and let me in

Roll over lay down



When I get home tomorrow night after this morning

Show me the day, show me the note the night before

Maybe I won't take a drink from the table

Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor

Roll over lay down and let me in

Roll over it's a long way where I've been

Roll over lay down and let me in

Roll over lay down
