[Intro: Lloyd]
I'd like to send my love out to the late Teena Marie
(Remix, remix)
We love you
I wanna send my blessings out to the wonderful Aretha Franklin
(Queen!)
The Queen of Soul
Yeah...
We gonna keep it classy
Young Lloyd
Miss Patti, I see you baby

[Chorus: Lloyd]
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down, oh, lay it down
Lay your head on my pillow

[Verse 1: Lloyd]
Hey Mama Patti
I think I need some advice
See my girl talkin' bout how
I don't love her right
See I give her everything and she's a good girl
But I need her to stay down like a hood girl
See I don't wanna run the streets all my life
But the problem is she's never satisfied
[Patti LaBelle:]
But son do you tell hеr
I, love you
Or I need you?
Tell her I want you
Or do you just sit down thеre and tell your girl-

[Chorus: Lloyd]
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down, oh, lay it down
Lay your head on my pillow

[Patti LaBelle & (Lloyd)]
So I'm lookin' at the problem son
And I have some advice
(Tell me, mama)
She, she told me how your more in the club than in the bed at night
(But she be lyin' on a n***a, mama)
Now if you really wanna keep a good girl
Then why you run the streets with a hood girl?
If you wanna keep this girl in your life
You better straighten up and treat this girl right and tell her
I, love you
I, need you
Honey I, want you
I do
Instead of tellin' your girl to lay your head down
[Chorus: Lloyd]
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down, oh, lay it down
Lay your head on my pillow

[Lloyd:]
This what I'll do for you baby
I'ma change, I'ma change
I'ma tell my girl how much I love her- I'mma do right
I'ma stay up out the club 'cause I know that you right

[Patti LaBelle:]
You don't have to change
Stay the same
Just switch it up a little- let her see that you try
She's gonna love you more if you do

[Chorus: Lloyd]
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay your head on my pillow
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down, oh, lay it down
Lay your head on my pillow
[Patti LaBelle:]
I, love you
I, need you
Honey I, want you...
