brent cobb - diggin' holes lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well, i ought to be working in a coal mine
neck deep in black lung soot
swinging a pick at that mountain side
halfway to china, i think i would
fit right in where the sun don’t shine
she’s better off alone
yeah i ought to be working in a coal mine
lord knows i’m good at digging holes

[verse 2]
well i ought to be drilling for that black gold
swimming in that texas tea
i could make a k!lling all on my own
selling my misfortune to a family
cause when i hit rock bottom
the deeper down i go
yeah, i ought to be drilling for that black gold
lord knows i’m good at digging holes

[verse 3]
well i ought to be working for the railroads
sweat pouring off my back
hauling away a heavy load
it’s a far cry from heaven down a cold steel track
and i can’t take her with me
she’s better off without
yeah i ought to be working for the railroads
lord knows i’m good at leaving 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

[verse 4]
well i ought to make my living 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”
yeah, i ought to make my living in a graveyard
lord knows i’m good at digging holes
oh i ought to make my living in a graveyard
lord knows i’m good at digging holes
