Hi and welcome to Music Monday! First of all, credit where credit is due: Music Monday is hosted by Drew a.k.a. @SarcasticEnigma over on The Tattooed Book Geek. Each week he presents a song that he really loves and this week I’m joining in with a song that I really love. I got to know this song through the TV-show Nashville, where two of the characters were constantly singing it and it made me look it up to find the original by The Lumineers.
Ho
Hey
Ho
Hey
I been trying to do it right
(Hey) I been living a lonely life
(Ho) I been sleepin’ here instead
(Hey) I been sleepin’ in my bed
(Ho) I been sleepin’ in my bed (hey ho)
So show me family
(Hey) all the blood that I will bleed
(Ho) I don’t know where I belong
(Hey) I don’t know where I went wrong
(Ho) but I can write a song (hey)
I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweet’ (ho)
Hey (come on now)
Ho
Hey
I don’t think you’re right for him
(Hey) think of what it might have been if we
(Ho) took a bus to chinatown
(Hey) I’d be standin’ on canal (ho) and Bowery (hey)
(Ho) she’d be standin’ next to me (hey)
I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweetheart
Love we, need it now
Let’s hope, for some
‘Cause oh, we’re bleedin’ out
I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweet'(ho)
Hey
Ho
Hey

Thanks for reading and listening! Tell me what you think and which you prefer: original or cute kiddie cover ? Either way, I hope you enjoyed this #MusicMonday, have a great week!
The Nashville version gets my vote as I loved that show!!
I’m not that into country music and I hadn’t thought I’d ever love the show as much as I did! The original is still my favourite though ?
love this song, especially the original version, though the Nashville one isn’t too bad either. Don’t know this series. On Netflix? Any good?
Yeah I’m not really a country music fan but I loved Nashville, both the story and the music. Not sure if it’s on Netflix, I borrowed it from a friend many moons ago ?
Another great pick! I think I prefer the original though. xD
It’s a good one isn’t it ? Next week I’m featuring a Belgian band!
