[00:32.64]Boys workin on empty
[00:36.12]Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?
[00:40.62]I just think about my baby
[00:44.40]I'm so full of love I could barely eat
[00:48.38]There's nothing sweeter than my baby
[00:51.78]I never want once from the cherry tree
[00:56.46]Cause my baby's sweet as can be
[00:59.61]She give me toothaches just from kissin me
[01:04.18]When, my, time comes around
[01:08.31]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[01:12.20]No grave can hold my body down
[01:16.70]I'll crawl home to her
[01:20.11]That's when my baby found me
[01:23.75]I was three days on a drunken sin
[01:27.96]I woke with her walls around me
[01:31.62]Nothin in her room but an empty crib
[01:35.85]And I was burnin up a fever
[01:39.35]I didn't care much how long I lived
[01:43.74]But I swear I thought I dreamed her
[01:47.21]She never asked me once about the wrong I did
[01:51.72]When, my, time comes around
[01:55.91]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[01:59.62]No grave can hold my body down
[02:03.59]I'll crawl home to her
[02:07.63]When, my, time comes around
[02:11.58]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[02:15.50]No grave can hold my body down
[02:19.41]I'll crawl home to her
[02:23.67]My baby never fret none
[02:27.21]About what my hands and my body done
[02:31.40]If the Lord don't forgive me
[02:34.72]I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
[02:39.24]When I was kissing on my baby
[02:42.75]And she put her love down soft and sweet
[02:47.26]In the low lamp light I was free
[02:51.20]Heaven and hell were words to me
[02:55.14]When, my, time comes around
[02:59.14]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[03:03.90]No grave can hold my body down
[03:06.92]I'll crawl home to her
[03:11.90]When, my, time comes around
[03:15.70]Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
[03:18.76]No grave can hold my body down
[03:22.64]I'll crawl home to her
