Lyrics:

(Bob Welch)Let me retellA story of oldAbout a man named MosesWho lived long agoHe prophicied goodHe prophicied ba
dAnd now that prophecy'sComing to passLet all your sons, and your daughtersOf the golden calfLay down your burden of sorro
wLay down your burden of hurtLay it all down, for paradise here on earthA whole lot of people, including myselfThought the
story of Moses was just a tall taleBut all of the things that we see going onAre just what Moses set downLet all your sons,
and your daughtersOf the golden yeahLay down your burden of sorrowLay down your burden of hurtLay it all down, for paradise
here on earthLet me retellA story I knowAbout a man named MosesWho lived long agoHe prophicied goodHe prophicied badAnd
now that prophecy'sComing to passLet all your sons, and your daughtersOf the golden yeahLay down your burden of sorrowLay
down your burden of hurtLay down your burden of sorrowLay down your burden of hurtLay down your burden of sorrowLay down y
our burden of hurtI just can't imagine a reason for sorrowJust can't imagine the hurtYou've got to lay it downYou've got to
lay it downYou've got to lay it downYou've got to lay it downI said lay down your burden of sorrowLay down your burden of
hurtLay down your burden of sorrowThere's just no reason to hurtYou've got to lay down your burden of sorrowLay down your b
urden of hurtI saidLay it all down, for paradise here on earth
