Well baby where you going so fast?
Let's make a good thing last
Ease your worried, weary mind
And put your troubles all behind you

Baby minutes turn to hours
And hours turn to days
And days you know they fade into years
Well girl I'll be doggone if I let you slip away

So baby lay back, lay back down
Stop your fooling around
Baby don't put a good thing down
Just lay back, oh lay back down

There ain't no use in trying
Ain't no use if denying was going on here
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
And days, they fade into years
Girl I'll be doggone if I let you slip away

So baby lay back, lay back down
Stop your fooling around
Baby don't put a good thing down
Lay back, go on and lay back down

Baby minutes turn to hours
And hours turn to days
And days they fade into years
Well girl be doggone if I let you slip away

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