Lyrics David Allan Coe – Would You Be My Lady
Text:
Would you hold on to my hand when I get lonely
Could I come to you whenever I’m in need
Would you always have a place for me to lay my body down
Would you be my lady, in the morning
Would you walk with me across the bridges I forgot to burn
Could you face the future looking at my past
If I took the time to teach you all the things you’ll need to learn
To be my lady, when I need you
Would you be my lady
Does it matter to you that you’re not my first love
Would you let a thing like that stand in your way
If I said you was the woman that could ease my troubled mind
Would you be my lady, when I need you
Would you be my lady
Would you walk with me across the bridges I forgot to burn
Could you face the future looking at my past
If I took the time to teach you all things you’ll need to learn
To be my lady, in the morning
Would you be my lady
Would you always have a place for me to lay my body down
