Lyrics
I used to walk stooped
From the weight of my tears
But I just started laying my burdens down
I used to duck bullets from the rifle of fear
But I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down

The flesh ain't nothing but the bark on a tree
I just started laying my burdens down
The tree ain't nothing but the soul in me
I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down

Soul took love on a hell of a ride
I just started laying my burdens down
My soul ain't nothing but the car love drives
I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down

Love said, "Mama can I come on home"
I just started laying my burdens down
And God, said "Son you ain't never been gone"
I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down
Oh, I'm layin' 'em down
I just started laying my burdens down
