Intro -x8-: C Dm
C Dm
Boys workin on empty
C Dm
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?
C Dm
I just think about my baby
C
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
C Dm
There's nothing sweeter than my baby
C Dm
I never want once from the cherry tree
C Dm
Cause my baby's sweet as can be
C
She give me toothaches just from kissin me
Am G
When, my, time comes around
C Dm
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Am G
No grave can hold my body down
C
I'll crawl home to her
C Dm
That's when my baby found me
C Dm
I was three days on a drunken sin
C Dm
I woke with her walls around me
C Dm
Nothin in her room but an empty crib
C Dm
And I was burnin up a fever
C Dm
I didn't care much how long I lived
C Dm
But I swear I thought I dreamed her
C
She never asked me once about the wrong I did
Am G
When, my, time comes around
C Dm
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Am G
No grave can hold my body down
C
I'll crawl home to her
C Dm
My baby never fret none
C Dm
About what my hands and my body done
C Dm
If the Lord don't forgive me
C
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
C Dm
When I was kissing on my baby
C Dm
And she put her love down soft and sweet
C Dm
In the lowland plot I was free
C
Heaven and hell were words to me
Am G
When, my, time comes around
C Dm
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Am G
No grave can hold my body down
C
I'll crawl home to her
