crooked still – darling corey lyrics
[verse 1]
wake up, wake up darling corey
tell me what makes you sleep so sound?
them highway robbers are coming
they’re ringing around your town
[chorus]
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
gonna lay darling corey down
[verse 2]
go away, go away darling corey
quit hangin’ around my bed
pretty women gonna run me distracted
corn liquor is k!lling me dead
[chorus]
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
gonna lay darling corey down
[verse 3]
oh, the first time i saw darling corey
she was standing in the door
she had her shoes and her stockings in her hands
and her little bare feet on the floor
[verse 4]
oh, the next time i saw darling corey
she was sitting on the banks of the sea
she had a forty#four strapped around her body
and a banjo on her knee
[chorus]
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
gonna lay darling corey down
[verse 5]
oh, last time i saw darling corey
she had a wine glass in her hand
she was drinking that sweet liquor
with a low#down, gambling man
[chorus]
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
gonna lay darling corey down
[verse 6]
don’t you hear those bluebirds singing?
don’t you hear that mournful sound?
they’re preaching corey’s funeral
in the lonesome graveyard ground
[chorus]
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
gonna lay darling corey down
