slaid cleaves - put the shovel down lyrics

[verse 1]
way back in blanco county
i knew a troubled soul
this cowboy couldn’t get out of his own way
a chip upon his shoulder
quick to lose control
diggin’ himself deeper every day

[verse 2]
losin’ friends and family
stumblin’ along
kicked out of every drinkin’ hole in town
every day just singin’
that same old jukebox song
until he learned to put the shovel down
[chorus]
some guys keep right on diggin’
you could say they’re trouble bound
if you wanna get out of the hole you’re in
the first thing you gotta do is put the shovel down

[verse 3]
well, i don’t mean to be a preacher
and i know that i’m no saint
you can ask all the people i have hurt
what i’vе got to say, boys
you can take or leave
quit your diggin’ and climb up out of thе dirt

[chorus]
some guys keep right on diggin’
you could say they’re trouble bound
if you wanna get out of the hole you’re in
the first thing you gotta do is put the shovel down

[verse 4]
well, i woke up this mornin’
watched the climbin’ sun
counted up my blessings one by one
and i will be here standing
when that sun goes down
because i learned to put the shovel down
[chorus]
some guys keep right on diggin’
you could say they’re trouble bound
some guys just won’t stop diggin’
’til they’re six feet underground
some guys keep right on diggin’
it’s no mystery, i’ve found
if you wanna get out of the hole you’re in
the first thing you gotta do is put the shovel down
