Buck Owens - I'm Layin' It On The Line lyrics

rate me

[ Don Rich ]

I'm layin' it on the line I'm a gonna make you mine

I think I better warn you it's only just a matter of time

Yeah as good as gone oh my name is Don I'm gonna make you mine

I'm tellin' you straight I'm a layin' it on the line

Well the first time I looked into your big brown eyes you really gave me a thrill

You were pretty and sweet and everything neat and dressed up fit to kill

I knew right then I had to win your heart and I don't mean maybe

I'll lay it on the line and I gotta make you my baby

I'll lay it on the line...

[ guitar ]

Well I'm just a homegrown country lad that ain't been much to school

Oh but I don't take much of schoolin' and such to know that I want you

Yeah I can feel a need in me without you dear I'm a hurtin'

I'm layin' it on the line I gotta have you for certain

I'll lay it on the line...

Yeah I'm tellin' you straight I'm a layin' it on the line
