Intro : (x8)

B oys workin on empty

I s that the kinda way to face the burning heat?

I just think about my baby

I 'm so full of love I could barely eat

T here's nothing sweeter than my baby

I never want once from the cherry tree

C ause my baby's sweet as can be

S he give me toothaches just from kissin me

When my time comes around

Lay me gently in the cold dark e arth

No grave can h old my body down

I'll crawl home to her

T hat's when my baby found me

I was three days on a drunken sin

I woke with her walls around me

N othin in her room but an empty crib

A nd I was burnin up a fever

I didn't care much how long I lived

B ut I swear I thought I dreamed her

S he never asked me once about the wrong I did

When my t ime comes around

Lay me gently in the cold dark e arth

No grave can h old my body down

I'll crawl home to her

(x2)

M y baby never fret none

A bout what my hands and my body done

I f the Lord don't forgive me

I 'd still have my baby and my babe would have me

W hen I was kissing on my baby

A nd she put her love down soft and sweet

I n the lowland plot I was free

H eaven and hell were words to me

When my t ime comes around

Lay me gently in the cold dark e arth

No grave can h old my body down

I'll crawl home to her

(x2)
