Eric did several verions, but here's one of 'em Baby Let Me Lay It On You - Eric Von Schmidt I say, "Baby let me lay it on you, just let me lay it on you. Well, I'd do anything in this Gawd-a-mighty world if you'd just let me lay it on you Well, I'd buy you a Cadillac car; don't want you to go very far Well, I'd do anything in this Gawd-a-mighty world if you'd just let me lay it on you And I'd get you a diamond ring, ooo-just to see you shake that thing Well, I'd do anything in this Gawd-a-mighty world if you'd just let me lay it on you Well, I'd get you a brand new suit; I'd slit your throat to boot - Who wrote that? Blind Boy Fuller? Gary David? Sounds like Newt Gingrich to me. Well I'd write I'll get you a brand new dress, so you don't have to look a mess Yes, I'd do anything in this Gawd-a-mighty world if you'd just let me lay it on you You know I'd take you to the moon and the stars; let you shake your shimmy upon Mars And I'd do anything in this Gawd-a-mighty world if you'd just let me lay it on you Now Bobby Dylan put me into a song. I said the song keeps rollin' along Now I don't get no royalties, but that's all right with me. I said, "Baby let me lay it on you, just let me lay it on you. Well, I'd do anything in this Gawd-a-mighty world if you'd just let me lay it on you
