[Intro]
(One more time..)

[Verse 1]
I was born in this hotel
Washing dishes in the sink
Magazines and free soda
Trying hard not to think

[Chorus]
Lay it on to the dawn
Everything we done is wrong
I'll be lonesome when I'm gone
Lay it on to the dawn

[Bridge]
She can talk to squirrels (Oh, ho yeah)
Coming back from the convalescent home (Oooh)
Staring at sports cars
Crying

[Verse 2]
Rattlesnake on the ceiling
Gunpowder on my sleeve
I will live here forever
With the ocean and the bees
[Chorus]
Lay it on to the dawn
Everything we done is wrong
I'll be lonesome when I'm gone
Lay it on to the dawn

[Outro]
Lay it on to the dawn
Lay it on to the dawn
Lay it on to the dawn
