[Verse]
Bb C
Boys workin on empty
Bb C
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?
Bb C
I just think about my baby
Bb
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
Bb C
There's nothing sweeter than my baby
Bb C
I never want once from the cherry tree
Bb C
Cause my baby's sweet as can be
Bb
She give me toothaches just from kissin me
[Chorus:]
Gm F
When, my, time comes around
Bb Cm
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Gm F
No grave can hold my body down
Bb
I'll crawl home to her
[Verse Riff]
That's when my baby found me
I was three days on a drunken sin
I woke with her walls around me
Nothin in her room but an empty crib
And I was burnin up a fever
I didn't care much how long I lived
But I swear I thought I dreamed her
She never asked me once about the wrong I did
[Chorus:]
Gm F
When, my, time comes around
Bb Cm
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Gm F
No grave can hold my body down
Bb
I'll crawl home to her
Repeat 2x
[Verse Riff]
My baby never fret none
About what my hands and my body done
If the Lord don't forgive me
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
When I was kissing on my baby
And she put her love down soft and sweet
In the lowland plot I was free
Heaven and hell were words to me
[Chorus:]
Gm F
When, my, time comes around
Bb Cm
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Gm F
No grave can hold my body down
Bb
I'll crawl home to her
Repeat 2x
[Outro:]
[Verse Riff]
