  • (Hey)

    They say that to really free your body
    You've got to free your mind
    So come on
    (Hey, hey, hey)
    Check this out (hey)

    Lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me
    Lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me
    Come on

    If you're ready, I'm willing and able
    Help me lay my cards out on the table
    You're mine and I'm yours for the taking
    Right now the rules we've made are meant for breaking

    What you get ain't always what you see
    But satisfaction is guaranteed
    They say what you give is always what you need, whoa whoa
    If you want me to lay my hands on you

    Lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me
    All you gotta do is
    Lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me
    Now listen up

    I'm a fighter, I'm a poet, I'm a preacher
    I've been to school and baby I've been the teacher
    If you show me how to get up off the ground
    I can show you how to fly and never ever come back down

    Everything you want is what I need
    Your satisfaction is, uh, guaranteed
    But the ride don't never ever come for free, no oh oh
    If you want me to lay my hands on you

    Lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me
    All you gotta do is
    Lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me, lay your hands on me

    Now now now baby
    Don't you know I only aim to please?
    If you want me to lay my hands on you, whoa whoa whoa

    (What you gotta do is)
    Lay your hands on me (lay on me)
    Lay your hands on me (come on, come on, come on)
    Lay your hands on me
    (Everybody gonna help me now)
    Lay your hands on me (I can feel the people sing)
    Lay your hands on me (I can feel my heart sing)
    Lay your hands on me (if you wanna lay them on baby, come on now)

    Whoa oh oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh oh, lay your hands on me (if you want me to)
    Whoa oh oh oh oh (all you got do) whoa oh oh oh oh, lay your hands on me

    Remember (lay your hands on me)
    Well, move it on (lay your hands on me)
    Oh, turn around, yeah (lay your hands on me)
    Lay (lay your hands on me)
    (Lay your hands on me)

  • Chad Eicher from Apple Creek, OhioI Had No Idea That Dolly Parton Would Turn That Bon Jovi Song Into A Gospel Tune. That Was Truly Amazing. Maybe I Would Love To Meet Dolly Parton In Person And Maybe Perform That Awesome Song With Her.
  • Josh from TumwaterIt’s a song about healing
