Boys workin' on empty Is that the kind'a 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'd never want once from the cherry tree 'Cause my baby's sweet as can be She give me toothaches just from kissin' me 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 her Boys when my baby found me I was three days on a drunken sin I woke with her walls around me Nothin' in her 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 her She never asked me once about the wrong I did 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 her 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 her 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 she put her love down soft and sweet In the lowland plot I was free Heaven and hell were words to me 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 her 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 her
I've never been more grateful with the YT algorithm for recommending me something. This is just beautiful, your voice, the aesthetics, the video, everything. ✨✨✨
Work Song is my favorite song. I find it hard to appreciate covers of my favorite song. But this one is an exception. This is so beautifully done like the original. He captured the essence of the original song ❤ Thanks for this ❤
This was an amazing cover, really authentic and vocals were magical!!! You should try and sing “in a week” by Hozier it would be an amazing cover to hear!
I know I’m really late, but your voice is absolutely perfect. I feel like I’m listening to an angel. Please make more covers, please please please. I pray you see this. 🖤
Wow, that means so much to me thank you. I’ve actually been working on recording some of my own music over the past few months which will hopefully be out soon so stay tuned for that! :) As for the covers you can check out my Instagram and TikTok where I post shorter snippets of covers every now and then! x
damn this is seriously something else! I absolutely love what you did here. Any chance you'd be open to talking about what chords you used here? I haven't found anything that sounds quite this good and you nailed this!
Thank you!! the chords are Gm, F, A#, and Cm for the chorus and the verses just ride the E and A strings on the first and third fret respectively! Hope that helps! :)
This recently came onto my suggestions. I'm so happy I got to see this and finally see you sing this song! Keep up the hard work! So proud to see your progression :)
We were just talking about Work Song covers like an hour ago then this shows up in my recommendations. Is RUclips spying on me?😱 P. S. great cover! Absolutely love it!💖
Why did you stop? I know this may have been a hobby, but you could've filmed yourself signing any song each day and I would've tuned in. Your voice is so passionate.
Been searching for acoustic covers and ways to change this song which is very difficult because this song already in itself is one difficult you have to have emotions. When you’re also changing up I am the instruments and the set up for the song it’s so easy to add too much this song because this song is not meant to have eight 18 piece orchestra or 808 or any of this BS song supposed to be from a place of pain and recovery and just damn. One guy crush to the max beautiful two I would love to have him on my album or collaborate in someway shape or form because I think you’ll be very very amazing with the folk and set up of the way I do things. So I don’t know I know that I have to cover the song put it on tour it would be dope to have someone like you come up and just do that song and a two duet about two people that are talking about different things I think it would be awesome and it would keep what you did so well as keeping light and perfect Number three damn damn damn damn damn fine in love boy crush whatever yes
I won't lie, the cover sounds no different than the original song itself. Someone can substitute your voice at the place of Hozier's lead vocalist, and I won't know.
This is the only cover of Work song that I like. No over-embellishments. Just perfect .
Thank you! Glad to hear you enjoyed it! :)
All I needed was the first note to judge, instant like at 0:22
Also the scenery and aesthetic is gorgeous
do the world a favor and never stop making music. your voice is gold.
Bananasauce wow. Thank you so much! x
Good God you sound like Hozier I re check the title to see if this was a remix or something! Your voice is lovely
I can see the effort you put into filming this video but your talent makes it all look so effortless
the vibes are immaculate :0
Agreed

You’ve actually done justice to this song out of all the covers out there🌸
Boys workin' on empty
Is that the kind'a 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'd never want once from the cherry tree
'Cause my baby's sweet as can be
She give me toothaches just from kissin' me
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 her
Boys when my baby found me
I was three days on a drunken sin
I woke with her walls around me
Nothin' in her 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 her
She never asked me once about the wrong I did
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 her
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 her
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 she put her love down soft and sweet
In the lowland plot I was free
Heaven and hell were words to me
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 her
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 her
Wow, just... wow
Literally the voice is like Hozier
I love it! ✨💕

We were just talking about Work Song covers like an hour ago then this shows up in my recommendations. Is RUclips spying on me?😱
P. S. great cover! Absolutely love it!💖
Yes. Your phone is constantly listening to you. Talking about something and then seeing an ad for it later or something is not a coincidence.
this is so lovely 🥺❤️
Why did you stop? I know this may have been a hobby, but you could've filmed yourself signing any song each day and I would've tuned in. Your voice is so passionate.
You have a nice voice : )
Ginger, shoes, nails, and great Hoz cover. I trust you. Hope you’re doing well in this pandemic and still keepin on the jams.
Keep singing all my favorite songs and I’ll wife you :)
Damn.
So addictive! Nice voice, nice attitude. Best wishes for you!!!

Would you be open to doing weddings in like 5-6 years 😭
I definitely want you to preform this at my wedding !!

Random but you look so much like Kenneth Wurman in the movie Can't buy me love
Bro your so handsome
i thought it was hozier at the first part dmn
I won't lie, the cover sounds no different than the original song itself. Someone can substitute your voice at the place of Hozier's lead vocalist, and I won't know.
