- Hey!
Thank you for stopping by! I hope you enjoy my original musical arrangement of "A-Crawling to You," lyrics by Suzanne Collins in her new Hunger Games novel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. I saw the words "yoo-hoo" and I knew that, at least in my mind, this is what the song sounded like! lol!
Also, sorry about the angle... I guess when you're trying to record by yourself in the staircase to your attic, you sometimes cut off part of your forehead! Haha! Anyway, I hope you enjoy!
The lyrics are set to my original melody and ukulele composition called "Dirt Road Jive," which I own the rights to.

Lyrics p. 362-364
My heart's stupid and that's not maybe.
Can't blame Cupid, he's just a baby.
Shoot it, boot it, execute it,
Still comes a-crawling to you-hoo.
Heart's gone funny, it won't hear reason.
You're like honey, you bring the bees in.
Sting it, wring it, give a fling, it
Still comes a-crawling to you.
I wish it mattered that
You chose to smash it up.
How come you shattered that
Thing I love with?
Did you feel flattered that
You could just trash it up?
That's why you battered that
Thing I love with.
Trapped my ticker but haven't freed it.
People snicker at how you treat it.
Snare it, tear it, strip it bare, it
Still comes a-crawling to you-hoo.
Heart's been jumping just like a rabbit.
Blood keeps pumping but that's just habit.
Drain it, pain it, I'm insane, it
Still comes a-crawling to you.
Burn it, spurn it, don't return it,
Break it, bake it, overtake it,
Wreck it, deck it, what the heck, it
Still comes a-crawling to you.

this quality lucy gray content is just what we all need during lockdown 😌
the covid nostalgia i get from her is crazy
I really hope the writers of the movies look into your covers. They have all been spot on for me so far
Tbh I won’t accept any songs accept for these versions 😭
OH MY GOODNESS! I have listened to A LOT of covers of Lucy Gray’s songs, but all of yours are all the best! Your voice is so beautiful. I love the fun and up beat touch you put on all of the songs. When I was reading the book, the songs sounded like this in my head. Amazing Job!
I can really imagine Lucy Gray singing this at the Hob! That is amazing!
a certified BOP
How do you get every song so perfect 😩❤️
those ukulele skills though 👀
Great job once again! Hope they will use your versions of the songs in the movie cause they are just amazing :)
Lyrics. I just spent 20 minutes typing this from my book please don't leave any hate comments and Emma Lee this is amazing! 😊😊

People snicker at how you treat it. Snare it, tear it, strip it bare, it
Still comes a-calling to you-hoo.
Heart's been jumping just like a rabbit. Blood keeps pumping but that's just habit.
drain it, pain it, I'm insane, it
Still comes a-crawling to you.
Burn it, spurn it, don't return it,

Thank you for typing this out, it’s a very nice thing to do, but it’s in the description! Sorry! :)
I got some Elvis Vibes from the song
I think this one night be my favorite yet
I love it just like I imagine that
*it*
You ARE Lucy Gray Baird in these videos.
I love it, just need the begining😂😂 "Okay, pretty birds. A one, a two, a one two three and...
Anyone else had there heel tapping out the beat like snow even before Emma started sing
And now we need that fiddle solo thrown in, and we can have us a real party!!!
I love this, it has a perfect upbeat tone to match the scene!! Please drop the chords if it’s not too much trouble🎶💗
Also congrats on hitting 1,000 subscribers!!! You deserve it🥳🎉
I hope to God the film versions of the songs are this good!
Yeah! Rockin' out those blues riffs! Short and sweet!
Your covers of Lucy Gray's songs are my absolute favourites! This one is so playful and exactly the kind of thing I had been imagining when I read it - and your Ballad of Lucy Gray Baird is just wonderful :) I'm going to see the film soon so I just had to remind myself of the brilliance of your versions before I see what the film has done with the songs!
This is the best cover of a fictitious dystopian song I’ve ever heard.
This one was so much fun❤️ i love it :)
I love your versions of all of Lucy Gray's songs and I'm not sure if you notice or even knew but in every video you do one of her songs you're wearing something with a bright color on it and that just brings out Lucy even more and I love it also I love your outfit in this video it's beautiful!
This is amazing. I'm currently recording the "Books for the Blind" version of this book and I try to sing all the songs the way you do them (within my limited range). Very excellent work, you bring vibrant life to something that's pretty dead on the page to be honest. Keep up the excellent work!
This is amazing!!
I love you so much! Your simply amazing & beautiful & great ! And by the way I’ve heard the audible books 3 times now and the last time I paused the parts where the songs are & play your versions a few times before continuing the book.
This is so fun❤️😁
PLEASE drop a tutorial for this song 😭😭 I only recent discovered the ballad of songbirds and snakes and Lucy Gray Baird is my new obsession istg
You’re so skilled and talented ! Keep the amazing work up!
What instrument is she using and what are the chords? I would love to be able to learn how to play it🙂
I’m using a concert sized ukulele, and there are honestly so many chords. I will have to get back to you on that because I’m not sure which ones I’m even using. 😅
I'll add my voice to the request for chords or tutorial. It's probably beyond my skill level since I haven't got the hang of chucking yet but this is on my "wish I could play" list.
OMG 😲❤️😘
I really love it ❤️
Yess this is exactly how I thought she’d sound
sounds really like Lucy Gray♥️♥️ love your voice :>>
Wow! Will you be do all the songs in the book?
omgg i love that. Can you make i video teaching how to play it with the chords and stuff.
That’s so fun!! Love it so much!! Are you going to post anymore tutorials?
Jia Irl yes! Soon! Things have been crazy because I got called in to work this past week, but I will be finding time to make some more tutorials for you all! ✨
Emma Lee that’s great! I found you due to your hunger games songs but I love your whole channel!!

i LOVE it, i would die for some tutorial or something cause it wont get out of my head 🔥❤️
I’m loving your arrangements! May I suggest the reaping song next? That one was my favorite from the book❤️
Calla Schiefelbein I liked that song a lot too! But my favourite is, and always will be, ‘The Ballad Of Lucy Gray Baird’ where she sung it at the interview.
I have a different one coming tomorrow! But the reaping song will be the next one after that!
Emma Lee Anything is good! You’re arrangements are awesome!
Holy moly I hope they use this arrangement for the movie!
That was AWSOME!
