Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Boys workin on empty

No grave can hold my body down
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?

I'll crawl home to her
I just think about my baby

Gb G#m
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
My baby never fret none
Gb G#m
Gb G#m
There's nothing sweeter than my baby
About what my hands and my body done
Gb G#m

I never want once from the cherry tree
If the Lord don't forgive me

Cause my baby's sweet as can be
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have

She give me toothaches just from kissin me

When I was kissing on my baby

When, my, time comes around
And she put her love down soft and sweet

Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
In the lowland plot I was free

No grave can hold my body down
Heaven and hell were words to me

I'll crawl home to her

That's when my baby found me
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth

I was three days on a drunken sin
No grave can hold my body down
Gb G#m

I woke with her walls around me
I'll crawl home to her
Gb G#m
Nothin in her room but an empty crib
Gb G#m
And I was burnin up a fever
Gb G#m
I didn't care much how long I lived
Gb G#m
But I swear I thought I dreamed her
Gb
She never asked me once about the wrong I did
