[Verse 1]
Bb Cm Boys working on empty Bb Cm is that the kind of way to face the burning heat Bb Cm I just think about my baby Bb I'm so full of love I can 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 gives me toothaches just from kissing 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 2]
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 Nothing in her room but an empty crib Bb Cm and I was burning up a fever Bb Cm I didn't care much how long I lived Bb Cm I swear i thought I dreamed her Bb 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 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 3]
Bb Cm My baby never fret none Bb Cm about what my hands and my body's 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 She put her love down soft and sweet Bb Cm In the low lamp light I was free Bb Heaven and Hell were just 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 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
