[00:32.800]Boys workin on empty
[00:35.960]Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?
[00:40.504]I just think about my baby
[00:43.888]I'm so full of love I could barely eat
[00:48.400]There's nothing sweeter than my baby
[00:51.762]I never want once from the cherry tree
[00:56.120]Cause my baby's sweet as can be
[00:59.799]She give me toothaches just from kissin me
[01:04.355]When, my, time comes around
[01:08.168]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[01:12.096]No grave can hold my body down
[01:16.090]I'll crawl home to her
[01:20.112]That's when my baby found me
[01:23.826]I was three days on a drunken sin
[01:28.106]I woke with her walls around me
[01:31.731]Nothin in her room but an empty crib
[01:36.018]And I was burnin up a fever
[01:39.506]I didn't care much how long I lived
[01:43.997]But I swear I thought I dreamed her
[01:47.266]She never asked me once about the wrong I did
[01:51.827]When, my, time comes around
[01:55.938]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[01:59.882]No grave can hold my body down
[02:03.604]I'll crawl home to her
[02:07.690]When, my, time comes around
[02:11.620]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[02:15.557]No grave can hold my body down
[02:19.538]I'll crawl home to her
[02:23.877]My baby never fret none
[02:27.076]About what my hands and my body done
[02:31.548]If the Lord don't forgive me
[02:34.895]I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
[02:39.252]When I was kissing on my baby
[02:42.652]And she put her love down soft and sweet
[02:47.316]In the low lamp light I was free
[02:51.076]Heaven and hell were words to me
[02:55.333]When, my, time comes around
[02:59.062]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[03:03.188]No grave can hold my body down
[03:07.047]I'll crawl home to her
[03:10.972]When, my, time comes around
[03:15.003]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[03:18.886]No grave can hold my body down
[03:22.905]I'll crawl home to her
