Would You Lay with Me

About Would You Lay with Me

"Would You Lay with Me (In a Field of Stone)" is a song written by David Allan Coe and recorded by American country music artist Tanya Tucker. It was released in December 1973 as the first single and title track from the album Would You Lay with Me (In a Field of Stone). It topped the U. S. country chart on March 30, 1974, for one week and was Tucker's third number-one song on the chart. On the Billboard Hot 100, the song peaked at number 46. Only her 1975 number-one country hit, "Lizzie and the Rainman", performed better on the pop chart. Coe later recorded the song as the b-side to his 1975 single "You Never Even Called Me by My Name." In 1974, a version by veteran Australian singer Judy Stone reached into the top 5 of the Australian pop charts. Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings recorded the song on their 1983 album, Take It to the Limit. In 2000, Johnny Cash covered the song on his album, American III: Solitary Man. Alf Robertson covered the song in 1978, in Swedish as "Jennifers frågor". more »

Would you lay-ay wi-ith me in a fie-ield o-of sto-one
If my needs were strong, would you lay-ay wi-ith me
Should my lips grow-ow dry, would you wet them dear
In the midnight hour, if my lips were-ere dry

Would you go a-away to another-er land
Walk a thousand miles through the burni-in' sand
Wipe the blood a-away from my dyin' ha-and
If I give my-yself to-oo you

Will you bathe wi-ith me in the strea-eam o-of life
When the moon is full, will you ba-athe wi-ith me
Will you still lo-ove me, when I'm down and out
In my time of trial will you sta-and by-why me

Would you go a-away to anothe-er land
Walk a thousand miles through the burni-in' sand
Wipe the blood a-away from my dyin' ha-and
If I give my-yself to you

Would you lay wi-ith me in a field of sto-one
(Would you lay with me in a field of stone)
Should my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear-ear
(Should my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear)
Will you bathe wi-ith me in the strea-eam of life
(Will you bathe wi-ith me in the strea-eam of life)
Will you still lo-ove me, when I'm down and out [fade]

She has had several successful albums, several Country Music Association award nominations, and hit songs such as 1973's "What's Your Mama's Name?" and "Blood Red and Goin' Down," 1975's "Lizzie and the Rainman," and 1988's "Strong Enough to Bend". more »
