From the recording Live at Shifty's
An original cut.
Lyrics
Dig Me a Hole
I’m gonna dig me a hole in my backyard
till I can’t see over the top
Dig me a hole in my backyard
till I can’t see over the top
It’s my own damn yard
I’ll die right here if I want
I’m gonna cut down this tree
with my big ol’ ax
let it fall where it may
I’m gonna cut down this tree
with my big ol’ ax
let it fall where it may
It’s my own damn yard
and I’ll cut down what I want
I’m gonna build me a party house
on the far corner down below
I’m gonna build me a party house
on the far corner down below
It’s my own damn yard
and I’ll party all night if I want
I’m gonna get me a diamond shooter
six slugs loaded tall
I’m gonna get me a diamond shooter
six slugs loaded tall
It’s my own damn yard
try and stop me and I’m gonna watch you fall
