Your neck is burned your body's hurtin'
Boss man's been on your back all day
You're out there in the hot sun workin
While he's sippin iced tea in the shade
You have to put up with so much & you feel beat up
But that's all about to fade away

[CHORUS]
Come on, lay your head down on my shoulder
Let your troubled mind go free
All day long you've had to be strong, but now you're home & I'll make you see
You don't have to be tough with me
You don't have to be tough with me

Just leave your boots there by the doorway
I'll pour us both a glass of wine
I'll bet I can think of some way
To help bring back your tender side
It's a heavy load to bear in your world out there
But tonight you're back in mine

[CHORUS]
Come on, lay your head down on my shoulder
Let your troubled mind go free
All day long you've had to be strong, but now you're home & I'll make you see
You don't have to be tough with me

There it is now there you go, there's that smile I know
Let's keep it goin all night long
All night long

[CHORUS]
Come on, lay your head down on my shoulder
Let your troubled mind go free
All day long you've had to be strong, but now you're home & I'll make you see
You don't have to be tough with me
You don't have to be tough with me
