Lyrics

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
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 Wake up, wake up darlin' Corey
 What makes you sleep so sound?
 The revenue officers are comin'
 Gonna tear your still house down
 Well, the first time I saw darlin' Corey
 She was sittin' on the banks of the sea
 A 44 wrapped around her body
 And a banjo on her knee
 Dig a hole in the meadow
 Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
 Dig a hole, dig a hole in thе meadow
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 Wе gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 Go away, go away, darlin' Corey
 Quit hanging 'round my bed
 Your liquor has ruined my body
 Pretty woman gone to my head
 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
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 Can you hear them bluebirds singing?
 Can you hear that mournful sound?
 They're preachin' Corey's funeral
 In some lonesome graveyard ground
 Dig a hole in the meadow
 Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
 Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
 We gonna lay darlin' Corey down
