Him

☁️

Boys workin on empty
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?
I just think about my baby
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
There's nothing sweeter than my baby
I never want once from the cherry tree
Cause my baby's sweet as can be
He give me toothaches just from kissin me

[Chorus:]
When, my, time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to him

That's when my baby found me
I was three days on a drunken sin
I woke with his walls around me
Nothin in his room but an empty crib
And I was burnin up a fever
I didn't care much how long I lived
But I swear I thought I dreamed him
He never asked me once about the wrong I did

[Chorus x2]

My baby never fret none
About what my hands and my body done
If the Lord don't forgive me
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
When I was kissing on my baby
And he put his love down soft and sweet
In the low lamp light I was free
Heaven and hell were words to me

I listen to this song and think about you.. like I usually do but this time. I think about all the little things we have.
