Johnny Cash Would you Lay with me (In a Field of
Stone) Letras:Would you lay with me in a field of stone?
If my needs were strong, would you lay with me?
Should my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear,
In the midnight hour if my lips were dry?
Would you go away to another land?
Walk a thousand miles through the burning sand?
Wipe the blood away from my dieing hand,
If I give myself to you?
Will you bathe me with me in the stream of life?
When the moon is full will you bathe with me?
Will you still love me when I'm down and out?
In my time of trial, will you stand by me?
Would you go away to another land?
Walk a thousand miles through the burning sand?
Wipe the blood away from my dieing hand,
If I give myself to you?
Would you lay with me in a field of stone?
If my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear?
Would you bathe with me in the stream of life?
Will you still love me when I'm down and out?

[WOULD YOU LAY WITH ME (IN A FIELD OF STONE)]
[Written by: David Allan Coe [1]
Performed by: Johnny Cash
Appears on: American (Recordings) III: Solitary Man-2000.]
[1] David Allan Coe (born September 6, 1939 in Akron, Ohio)
is an American country music singer/songwriter who achieved
his greatest popularity in the 1970s and 1980s. He has
written and performed over 280 original songs throughout his
long career. As a songwriter, his best-known compositions are
"Would You Lay with Me (in a Field of Stone)," originally
recorded by Tanya Tucker in 1955
[2] , and "Take this Job and Shove
It." The latter was a #1 hit for Johnny Paycheck, and it was
later turned into a hit movie (both Coe and Paycheck had minor
parts in the film).
[2] An interesting note about this song, is that it raised a lot of
controversy for Tanya Tucker because people thought she was singing
about sex -- quite scandalous in the mid-fifties! Cash, on the other
hand, thought it was a song about death (the "field of stone,"
referring to gravestones). As far as Coe is concerned, more than
likely he meant it as a song about death, but as crazy as Coe is,
for all we know, he could have been writing wedding vows for his
brother.]
