Lay Down Sally es una canción compuesta por Eric Clapton, Marcy Levy y George Terry. La canción tiene un aire country y fue inspirada por el deseo de Clapton de escribir una canción al estilo de J.J. Cale. El ritmo relajado y la letra encantadora contribuyeron al éxito de la canción, que se convirtió en uno de los éxitos del álbum Slowhand, consolidando aún más la reputación de Clapton como un maestro de la guitarra y composición.
