Lay Down Sammy
(1 Samuel 3:1-9)
parody of Lay Down Sally written and performed by Eric Clapton
There First Samuel three verse one
You want to you can read along and see
You know back when Samuel’s a boy
Comes awake, he hears a voice, and starts to freak
And so he tells the priest
(And Eli says…)
Lay down Sammy, and reset your alarm
Go right back it wasn’t me who called you
Lay down Sammy, get some sleep, you’ll need it soon
I’ve been lying down all night long, and now so should you
