Intro (x8): Bb Cm Bb Cm Boys workin on empty Bb Cm Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat? Bb Cm I just think about my baby Bb I'm so full of love I could barely eat Bb Cm There's nothing sweeter than my baby Bb Cm I never want once from the cherry tree Bb Cm Cause my baby's sweet as can be Bb She give me toothaches just from kissin me 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 Bb Cm That's when my baby found me Bb Cm I was three days on a drunken sin Bb Cm I woke with her walls around me Bb Cm Nothin in her room but an empty crib Bb Cm And I was burnin up a fever Bb Cm I didn't care much how long I lived Bb Cm But I swear I thought I dreamed her Bb She never asked me once about the wrong I did 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 Bb Cm My baby never fret none Bb Cm About what my hands and my body done Bb Cm If the Lord don't forgive me Bb I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me Bb Cm When I was kissing on my baby Bb Cm And she put her love down soft and sweet Bb Cm In the lowland plot I was free Bb Heaven and hell were words to me 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 Outro (x4): Bb Cm This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
