I'm gonna dig me a hole

I'm gonna bury my heart

I'll let it rest in pieces

Out in my back yard

I'll lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone

I'm gonna dig me a hole lord

I'm gonna bury my heart


Well it just stopped beating

One winter night

The very moment that she said goodbye

And one more lost love is too much to bare

Well this time it's broken beyond repair


I'm gonna dig me a hole

I'm gonna bury my heart

I'll let it rest in pieces

Out in my back yard

I'll lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone

I'm gonna dig me a hole lord

I'm gonna bury my heart


(Instrumental Break)


In the stone cold ground

I'm gonna chip away

A 6 feet down more

To it's resting place

All you memories come shake my hand

Of the sole survivor of this lonely man


I'm gonna dig me a hole

I'm gonna bury my heart

I'll let it rest in pieces

Out in my back yard

Lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone

I'm gonna dig me a hole lord

I'm gonna bury my heart


I'm gonna dig me a hole

Gonna bury my heart

I'll let it rest in pieces

Out in my back yard

I'll lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone

I'm gonna dig me a hole lord

I'm Gonna bury my heart


Gonna dig me a hole lord

I'm gonna bury my heart
