» Lyrics for "Work Song" by Hozier:
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 about to go to Nashville to see him with my girlfriend and I’m going to propose during this song💙 everyone wish me luck!
Bro someone did that during Francesca in Oklahoma. Hozier joked that people usually propose during Worksong.
Was he talking about you?
that is the most romantic and sweet thing ever. i hope you two are happy for years to come
Good luck and God bless you both 🥹🩵
Everything worked out amazing everyone! 💙💙💙
So glad I was here early enough to see that OP updated us a day ago. I'm so glad it worked out for you!!!
To love is one thing. To be loved is another. But to be loved by the one you love ….is everything.
Preach, Maria

I’m no romantic but I must say that is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard 👐🏼🧡
How beautiful😢❤
Amen ❤

This song hurts and heals my soul at once. I want to be in love with someone thats allowed to love me back again.
I hear you. Been burnt so much and so many failures trying given up on finding the "real" thing. The give and take the consideration trust and reciprocation. What I've experienced hasn't been great and have grown so happy in solitude that I feel I don't need anyone. Yet as the years roll on one reconsiders the novelty of independence too I guess. Gets lonelier the older you get I'm coming to find
@@janinekeyser I completely agree..I turned 35 this year..I've been alone for 6 years and I have been content but lately I've felt differently
@@catherinemason8077 I've been single for going on 8 years and before that 2 yrs etc. also lost my whole immediate family before I turned 40, now turning 42. Kind of just feels like I'm meant to be alone. I also somehow seem to be a better (stronger) person on my own. But I recall the lonely feeling settling in at 35 as well. Now I surround myself with nature, animals and my son who I had at that age. Thank God for that. Even though it comes with its own stresses it changes everything. God knew my whole family was leaving so he made sure I wasn't compleeeetely alone. I believe like that anyway. I just keep the faith and hope that His will be done and if that means I go it alone then heck you end up leaving alone anyway lol...
Don't give up, it took me 38 years to find mine, just put your faith in the Lords plan x
I could listen to this song for hours. The lyrics, the emotion. A masterpiece. ❤️
I have definitely searched up the 1 hour loop on TH-cam. This song puts me in a meditative state
he writes such heart felt romance songs. Nobody judges him for it either since they are so well written
If they don’t play this at my funeral I ain’t going
Lol you gotta wait till the end to find out
Yes 😊
😂
I can't stop listening to this song, it's my new favorite.
literally same !! there’s just something about it that’s so amazing
Man I loved it since day one but welcome to da club 😊
You like 9 years late lol
😅

I needed this song. My mental health- won’t calm my self a survivor year because I’m still struggling.
This song kind of keep me going for my husband and two boys for some reason.
It reminds me of “ain’t no grave that’ll hold my body down”.
I just had my first baby. You never truly know how hard this shit is.. prayers for you honey PPD is no joke.
Keep your head up mama! There is light at the end of every tunnel.
You got this , we got this
but you are literally a survivor by definition of the word because you are still HERE and TRYING despite all the STRUGGLES. you are doing great you are MUCH appreciated and i implore you to be very very kind to yourself in an active way. consciously congratulate yourself after small wins, actively comfort yourself after setbacks, actively encourage yourself when facing struggles. take care
Be strong ❤ your not alone
On repeat!!! This song has so much emotion I can feel it in my soul!!!!!
Same
My bf means absolutely everything to me and hearing this song, it brings tears to me cause one day I will die, and leave him behide, , but when I do if I can I will always crawl back to him, I love him so much.
I want this song played at my funeral

If it isn't, get up and leave 🤭

This song is so powerful, it really speaks to my soul.
I suck ass at expressing how i feel towards someone i love but Hozier translates it so much for me, i feel the lyrics so much towards my boyfriend. Some of the songs Hozier had written aren't exactly romantic, but god i can tell you how much he's like if Hozier's lyrical skills and poetry came to life as a human being, it's like Hozier wrote him but the melodic and voices, the YEARNING, the guitar always having such a complicated chords for the songs looks so much like him. He's written by Hozier, and he looks like every single element of a Hozier song that made the songs sounds so spiritual and breathtaking and endearing in the first place.
Sometimes hearing Hozier's songs can make me tear up by how amazing it is, everytime i look at him or even think about him, and not to be dramatic but i just feel so much love for him to the point i tear up. I don't know if "too much" love is even the right phrase to explain it.
I can hear Hozier's songs for hours, and i can look at him for hours. One time i catch myself looking at his picture for i don't know how long, but the oddest thing is that i didn't even got tired of it, i didn't even realise how long was i starring. There's also this sense of peace, yearning, safe, strength, gentle yet admiration of this song, i don't know if it's because that's the Hozier effect or this song just reminds me of how i feel about him. I can't fathom how someone like me can love every single bit of another individual and i can feel so much love. It's actually been so long since I've genuinely feel this much love, family ain't on the list, friends maybe but never to the point i can't even comprehend it. He's amazing and so insanely awesome, that i could actually even say I love him. It's always hard for me to say affirmations (yet Words Of Affirmation is my love language) but because of how he loves me, it was enough to break out of my generational habits to say three words just for him to hear it because i want him to know that. Humans are so unpredictable sometimes, even to themselves. Thank you Hozier for writing songs that is helping me explain my feelings to someone who's so important to me.
You say that you are bad at expressing but I felt sincerity in every word you wrote. I don't know how love works, as I have never had genuine feelings for other person but you described it so beautifully, you love that person very much, I wish you happiness!
@@Veronika_ereit's nothing! I was just yapping about how I feel and pretty much bragging how amazing he is 😭 But thank you! Love is really beautiful, glad you can see it through my perspective! :)
Yeah, i aint rea'in allat
@@conradjones3161 Nah i get, i wrote a whole ass essay without intending to 💀
@@snickbiordking5748 ey my fault gang I was jus joking around, I read most of it sorry if I seemed rude I really didn't think you'd see it
When he tells me he loves me but Hozier says "no grave could hold my body down I'll crawl home to her "🥺❤️
This song speaks to who has lost love...who is in love and who longs for love.❤
I never heard of them before and omg this song is amazing. Heard it on GMA this morning looked it up and now I'm listening to everything. His voice ❤ I'm in love
You never heard of “Take me to Church” ….?
Your skin isn't paper, don't cut it
Your neck isn't a coat, don't hang it
Your body isn't a book, don't judge it
Your life isn't a movie, don't end it
Your heart isn't a door, don't lock it
Remember to always love yourself no matter what you come against
(This is not my word, I'm spreading it to the 1% and now its your turn)
The body is easy to change. Go to the gym and fix your food
@@BrunoNeureiterI think you completely missed the point…
@@cluelesslover I didn't
@@BrunoNeureiterBro missed the point entirely.
@@fuffilicious I didn't. I intentionally diverted the attention to the only thing that can be changed.
I’m a simple person. All I want is for someone to love me the way Hozier sings about it 😢
This song on repeat 24/7😊
This is so impactful when someone you once loved passed. I can only hope this is how they feel
When my time comes around lay me gently in the cold dark earth.. no grave cold hold my body down.. I'll crawl home to her.. realist lyrics.. hurts More when your dealing w heart break.. if I could my love.. I'd go to you everytime.. bc I've learned my place this time. I hope my soul finds you again n the next life.. until then
The last sentence is the deepest thing I have ever read
It's honestly giving me "Take me to church" vibes
It’s the same singer so I’d say that’s his style 😂😂😂😂
@jessess6810 I know but I've heard his other music and this one just reminded me of it more than the other :)
I was playing this song and my 11 year old starting singing take me to church. Love his voice
I hope this song never dies
This song make me want to tell my friends and family I love them before it’s too late 😢
Ik this song has other meanings, but I def plan on singing this for my daughter when I finally marry her daddy 🥹💞 music can be interpreted however u want and I absolutely want this one to be interpreted in the purest way possible for me and our baby girl. I've been obsessed with this song since my pre-teen years and it has meant so much to me throughout the years 💞💞💞
Nah, not weird, change a couple words around and yeah I’m singing this for my daughter in my head right now ❤
This song is beautiful. It hurts me in a way I long to feel this level of love for another but it makes me happy. Such a confusing feeling
I miss my gram Lea so much, they didn’t invite me to her funeral, I don’t know where she’s buried, they’ve made it very hard to greave her loss, some days are harder than others, I like to think she sent me this song to let me know, she is always with me, I love you so much gramlea, I miss you so so much, your the first and last thing I think of when I wake up and go to bed, I hope heaven exists so I can see you once more,
Rest easy my gramlea, you deserve it
I’m so sorry for your loss
I’m sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss. You might be able to find where she is buried. I would try to look her up on Google. Sometimes it has where they were laid to rest.
Sometimes they post funeral updates in the newspaper in my town maybe you can go online and check out the eulogy to see if that helps. I miss my grandmother dearly and couldn’t imagine your situation
loved having this as my wedding song so heavenly
this song to me feel like devotion. one person is devoting their entire life/love to the one they're in love with.
Definitely reaches my soul 🔥🙏🏻🤙🏼
I'll be playing this at my wedding 🫶🫶🫶
Can you invite me Ima be alone forever I wanna wittiness a love story
@@michael1178 I thought the same thing. One day when you least expect It, your person will come into your life. Don't rush it, keep doing you and being your authentic self. Youll witness your own love story 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶
I had this song stuck in my head...had to buy the cd
i smile through the entire song. this iis a masterpiece indeed.
Brings tears to my eyes . I don't cry to often
The part I’d crawl home to her is soo strong the type of love I crave 😩🥰
"No Grave Can Hold My Body Down"❤❤❤
Thank you, Hozier ❤
One of the best songs ever.

A little germ hidden in the TikTok ❤❤❤
Tiktok brought me there , just thank the ceo of tiktok after hearing this🤤
Thanks TikTok ❤❤❤❤
I’m going to cep listen to it
The Epic! Bravo! Be on.
Every time i hear this song i think of him
I can relate to this song I been singing it loud 😂
Trust me girl, when you two are “happy” in the means of ghosting for about 3 days and him giving dry text no matter how hard you try to start conversations or him constantly blowing you off or “unable” to call so he can watch anime or hang out the boys means that you two are not happy. if you cry every night over someone like that then your wasting your emotions. emotions are not meant for the emotionless. he doesn’t care about you and never will. when he sends those paragraphs after you two break up talking about his ignorance and recognizing how shitty of a boyfriend he was then good, but never go back to them. let them be better for someone else while you find someone better. no matter how much your brain tells you he’s the one he’s not. stop wasting your time mourning cuz believe me they are not mourning over you. you deserve better and you know it.
I needed this 6 months ago before my visit with the grippy sock jail : )♡
It helps now too.. thank you🫶🏻
such a good song mainly because i listen to it while doing strrams and while at the gym but yeah overall such a good sing

Hello Master Lin. Since we put the center of the palms on the nipples, do we use the whole palm to massage the whole breast (like just over the skin) or do we hold the breasts the whole time and move them slightly in a circular motion? Thank you 🙏🏻
The first choice, some girls also prefer neither plz communicate
