Tonight it seems the world's at peace
A lovely calm for times like these
Wise hoot owl in the cypress trees
Starry sky and a gentle evening breeze
Life knocks us down, lord I know
We get up and here
Comes another blow
Don't it just leave ya feeling low
We let it hurt and then we let it go
Come
Lay back easy
Put away your worries
Rest your mind your weary heart
You might just see a shooting star
Lay back easy
Drift away in pretty dreams
Lay back, lay back easy
Listen to the hum of the bayou
Sounds like a lullaby so blue
Out the window a heavenly view
The midnight moon
Is watching over you
Lay back easy
Put away your worries
Rest your mind your weary heart
You might just see a shooting star
Lay back easy
Drift away in pretty dreams
Lay back, lay back easy
The season's turning honey
Here comes a breath of spring
With a sweet reminder
Of what sunny days can bring
And we will sing, so
Lay back easy
Put away your worries
Rest your mind your weary heart
You might just see a shooting star
Lay back easy
Drift away in pretty dreams
Lay back, lay back easy
Yeah lay back, lay back easy
Tonight it seems the world's at peace
A lovely calm for times like these
Wise hoot owl in the cypress trees
Starry sky and a gentle evening breeze
Life knocks us down, lord I know
We get up and here
Comes another blow
Don't it just leave ya feeling low
We let it hurt and then we let it go
Come
Lay back easy
Put away your worries
Rest your mind your weary heart
You might just see a shooting star
Lay back easy
Drift away in pretty dreams
Lay back, lay back easy
Listen to the hum of the bayou
Sounds like a lullaby so blue
Out the window a heavenly view
The midnight moon
Is watching over you
Lay back easy
Put away your worries
Rest your mind your weary heart
You might just see a shooting star
Lay back easy
Drift away in pretty dreams
Lay back, lay back easy
The season's turning honey
Here comes a breath of spring
With a sweet reminder
Of what sunny days can bring
And we will sing, so
Lay back easy
Put away your worries
Rest your mind your weary heart
You might just see a shooting star
Lay back easy
Drift away in pretty dreams
Lay back, lay back easy
Yeah lay back, lay back easy
