Lyrics and Chords
[1] Dig a hole dig a hole in the meadow Dig a hole in the [5] cold cold [1] ground Dig a hole dig a hole in the meadow Gonna lay darling [5] Cory [1] down
Wake up wake up darling Cory What makes you sleep so sound The highway robbers are comin' They're gonna tear your playhouse down
Well the last time I seen darling Cory On the banks of the deep blue sea She had a a forty-four buckled around her And a banjo on her knee
Wake up wake up darling Cory And go get me my gun I ain't no man for trouble But I'll die before I run
