Last night I dug your picture out from our old dresser drawer
I set it on the table and I talked to it till four
I read some old love letters right up till the break of dawn
Yeah, I've been sittin' alone diggin' up bones

Then I went through the jewelry and I found our wedding rings
I put mine on my finger and I gave yours a fling
Across this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home
Yeah, tonight I'm sittin' alone diggin' up bones

Chorus:
I'm diggin' up bones
I'm diggin' up bones
Exhuming things that's better left alone
I'm resurrecting mem'ries of a love that's dead and gone
Yeah, tonight I'm sittin' alone
Diggin' up bones

Then I went through the closet and I found some things in there
Like that pretty negligee that I bought you to wear
And I recalled how good you looked each time you had it on
Yeah, tonight I'm sittin' alone diggin' up bones

Chorus
