It's a cold old world that we're walking through   They ought to tell you at the start   But it's warm as toast walkin' two by two   Lay down the burden of your heart      Lay down the burden of your heart   I know you'll never miss it   Just show me, angel, where it hurts   And let your mammy kiss it      It's a fine fine line between love and hate   It's hard to tell the two apart   But what strength I have I offer you   Lay down the burden of your heart      Lay down the burden of your heart   I know you'll never miss it   Just show me, angel, where it hurts   And let your mammy kiss it      Lay down the burden of your heart   I know you'll never miss it   Just show me, angel, where it hurts   And let your mammy kiss it
