Diggin Holes
[Verse 1]
Well, I oughta be workin in a coal mine
Neck deep in black lung soot
Swingin a pick at that mountainside
Halfway to China I think I would
Fit right in where the sun don t shine
She s better off alone
Yeah I oughta be workin in a coal mine
Lord knows I m good at diggin holes
[Verse 2]
Well I oughta be drillin for that black gold
Swimmin in that Texas tea
I could make a killin all on my own
Sendin my misfortune to her family
cause when I hit rock bottom
The deeper down I go
Oh I oughta be drillin for that black gold
Lord knows I m good at diggin holes
[Verse 3]
Well I oughta be workin for the railroad
Sweat pourin off my back
Haulin away a heavy load
It s a far cry from heaven down that cold steel track
And I can t take her with me
She s better off without
Yeah I oughta be workin for the railroad
Lord knows I m good at leavin town
[Bridge]
When it comes to love I ain t got a clue
What this heart of mine is supposed to do
It tears me up inside what I put her through
Still she won t let go
[Instrumental]
x2
[Verse 4]
Well I oughta make my livin in a graveyard
Over my head in dirt
If I had a shovel I d bury this heart
Six feet down and my last words would be
I never meant to hurt you
I m better off a ghost
Oh I oughta make my living in a graveyard
Lord knows I m good at diggin holes
Oh I oughta make my living in a graveyard
Lord knows I m good at diggin holes
