Well baby where you goin' so fast
Let's make a good thing last
Ease your worried, weary mind

And put your troubles all behind

Baby the minutes turn to hours

The hours turn to days
The days, you know the days turn into years
Well girl, I'll be doggone, if I let you slip away

So lay back, lay back down
Stop your fooling around
Better don't put a good thing down

So lay back, lay back down

Ain't no use in trying

Ain't no use in denying what's going wrong
Tell me how can a good thing be wrong
Baby how can a good thing be wrong, now


Minutes turn to hours,
Hours turn to days

The days, the days turn into years
Well I'll be doggone, if I let you slip away
So lay back, lay back down

Stop your fooling around
Better don't put a good thing down
Lay back, oh lay back down


Baby, minutes turn to hours,
Hours turn to days

The days, the days turn into years
Well I'll be doggone, if I let you slip away
So lay back, lay back down

Stop your fooling around
Better don't put a good thing down
Just lay back, lay back down

(fades)
Baby, lay back, lay back down
Stop your fooling around
