See Bon Jovi Live

[Verse 1]
If you're ready, I'm willing and able
Help me lay my cards out on the table
You're mine and I'm yours for the taking
Right now the rules we made are meant for breaking

[Pre-Chorus]
What you get ain't always what you see
But satisfaction is guaranteed
They say what you give is always what you need
So if you want me to lay my hands on you

[Chorus]
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Now listen up!

[Verse 2]
I'm a fighter, I'm a poet, I'm a preacher
I've been to school and baby, I've been the teacher
If you show me how to get up off the ground, ground, ground
I can show you how to fly and never, ever come back down

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything you want is what I need
Your satisfaction is, uh, guaranteed
But the ride don't never, ever come for free, no, no-no, no, no
If you want me to lay my hands on you

[Chorus]
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
All you got to do is
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Yeah, yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, baby
Don't you know I only aim to please?
If you want me to lay my hands on you
Whoa, whoa, whoa

[Bridge]
What you gotta do is
(Lay your hands on me) Lay 'em on me
(Lay your hands on me) Well, come on, come on, come on
(Lay your hands on me)
And everybody gonna help me now
(Lay your hands on me) I can feel the people soon
(Lay your hands on me) I can feel my heart start
(Lay your hands on me) If you wanna lay 'em on me, come on, now

[Outro]
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Lay your hands on me
If you want me to, yeah
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh) All you gotta do
Lay your hands on me
Now remember (Lay your hands on me)
Little baby doll (Lay your hands on me)
Oh, turn around, now (Lay your hands on me)
Lay, lay, lay, lay, yeah (Lay your hands on me)
(Lay your hands on me)
Lay your hands on me

About

This song bio is unreviewed

Lay Your Hands on Me is the forth single released from Bon Jovi’s forth studio album, New Jersey, as well as its opening track. In an effort from the band to show more range, it features an atmospheric intro that takes up the first minute and forty seconds of the song’s runtime, as well as playing with a gospel like style.

The song teased as high as number seven on the Billboard Hot 100, and is one of Bon Jovi’s better-known songs. It’s been covered by multiple artists, including fellow glam band Warrant, and country legend Dolly Parton. It was also re-recorded as a more laid back, acoustic track for the Bon Jovi album This Left Feels Right.
