AE
I'll lay it on the line, I'm a gonna make you mine
A
I think I better warn you, it's only just a matter of time
D
You're as good as gone, or my name ain't Don, I'm gonna make you mine
AEA
I'm tellin' you straight, I'm a layin' it on the line
Verse:
AE
Well the first time I looked into your big brown eyes you really gave me a thrill
A
You were pretty and sweet, and ev'rything neat, and dressed up fit to kill
D
I knew right then, I had to win, your heart and I don't mean maybe
AEA
I'll lay it on the line, I gotta make you my baby
Chorus:
AE
I'll lay it on the line, I'm a gonna make you mine
A
I think I better warn you, it's only just a matter of time
D
You're as good as gone, or my name ain't Don, I'm gonna make you mine
AEA
I'm tellin' you straight, I'm a layin' it on the line
Verse:
AE
Well I'm just a home-grown country lad that ain't been much to school
A
But it don't take much, of schoolin' and such, to know that I want you
D
Yeah I can feel a need in me, without you dear I'm a hurtin'
AEA
I'll lay it on the line, I gotta have you for certain
Chorus:
AE
I'll lay it on the line, I'm a gonna make you mine

I'm tellin' you straight, I'm a layin' it on the line
AEA
Yeah I'm tellin' you straight, I'm a layin' it on the line
