Lyrics 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'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 low lamp light 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
this version of work song is my favorite. the violins fit so well, they make this awesome song even more beautiful. Overall, this sounds ethereal.I could listen to it for hours, days and years.
I'm beyond blessed to have found this sort of love in this life, that unconditional love that transcends all else, even life and death; And I choose to believe that I'll find it in him again in every lifetime that comes thereafter ❤
Was doing great.. then I came across this song and it hurt me to my very essence. I fear that this released memories that broke me years ago and will never be fixed
I feel sorry for people who haven't felt loved or was given it. I used to refuse it until my partner. So many people in my life have stepped in but i was so stubborn to refuse of what they give, my partner is the one, where the first time i allow myself to take it. Love is so scary, especially for me, having this unconditional love I have with people but i know deep down, i won't have that, I'll never receive the same thing, and that hurts. Refusing them got so much easier, that it was so hard for me to accept the love my partner has been giving me. It may be my first time accepting that love, but it's also me trusting love one last time, just once, that maybe this would turn out differently than what I've built this belief of love in my head that my heart never agreed to it in the first place. And for the first time, I regretted nothing from trusting love again. He has no idea that he has changed me so much. It's been long since I've felt safe, trusting so much with my whole soul, my being, my heart, everything. It wasn't my first time feeling this loved, but he made me remember what's it like to feel loved and loving someone, I never realized i forgot what's it like until him. Not only was I scared to trust, I was scared to trust myself. I have past problems, built it up so much to the point i felt like my hands are not created to care and protect someone but hurt them, with or without intentions. I was so scared to hurt him, he has been hurt too in the past. If i hurt him, not even Gods forgiven nature can make me forgive myself for hurting him. I would truly rather sew my mouth, cut my hand off than to ever hurt him. But I've been trying, and slowly, I was starting to see how much my heart, my actions, words, can be used to love this person, to protect him, to hold him, to take care of him, to maybe tell him I love him every damn morning until our last breath on earth. I always thought that most companions for life would be sickening, that you'll constantly fight, insult eachother, feel hurt and continue on until you're tired of eachother. But this man can be so annoying, can give me a heartattack of doing something that could get himself hurt, so impulsive, an idiot at times. But as i seriously thought about it, having him doing that for the rest of my life, having his flaws, his dumb dry jokes, doesn't bother me at all. I never understood why would he still love me regardless of being such a mess, but now it's a ridiculous thought that you'd think that I wouldn't love you with your flaws that made you humane in the first place. It is why I love you, why I was drawn to you, why I am able to bound to connect with you in the first place. I'd rather be with him than my family who have shown me love yet are conditional. Love is beautiful. And with him, I truly believe everyone deserves to feel this loved and receive it, unconditionally. I don't care what label of love it is, romantic, platonic, family, love is something every being on this small rock with little short lives should experience. Experience, receive, accept, give, and value and cherish it for your dear life. It is not love if you don't take care of it, it is not love if you didn't try. It is very random to comment this I apologize y'all 😭 I was just feeling it whenever i listen to Hozier, my partner looks and was written by Hozier i believe. And if possible, I'd have this version of Work Song when we get married.

they removed this song in the United states, i had to get nord vpn just to come find this and say this....
Wait really? Why
The way the violin hits in the last verse just sounds amazingly heartbreaking. It brings tears to my eyes
grow up

Lyrics
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'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 low lamp light 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’m always down to listen to another version of Work Song!
@Oakley Curtis yup, I have been using Flixzone for years myself =)

I'm sitting here crying, please lift my beating heart from my shattered ribs
Was doing great.. then I came across this song and it hurt me to my very essence. I fear that this released memories that broke me years ago and will never be fixed
No Hozier u can't do this to me 😭😭 I'm dying
Why isn’t this version on Spotify??😭😭
This is THE version. So good with the strings
Totally agree!😢
@@colbysmith974 ikr the strings sound so well and it blends in perfectly with his voice
the poster seems to have mixed it themselves mixing multiple versions into this masterpiece.
Cause Spotify sucks
the vibe is immaculate~ mia nevin
