The Shovel

On my way I found a stone Oh mesmer is this stone I started to dig to find some more Diggin' the dirt to the core My shovel broke I went to the store I bed my shovel in stone The owner says 'Oh, the shovel's worth way more' So I went digging some more I found a plank behind a door And the plank broke once more I started to dig with my bare hands Skinnin' my flesh to the core On my way I found a stone Found a stone Found a stone I started to dig to find some more Diggin' the dirt to the core Something hard just broke my sum Did I find, really found some? The promised stone was just a bone Just some bloody damn bones I dug so deep and for too long When the storm came along The storm so strong, the hole collapsed Crushin' my chest and my lungs On my way I found a stone Found a stone Found a stone I started to dig to find some more Diggin' the dirt to the core On my way I found a stone Found a stone Found a stone I started to dig to find some more Diggin' the dirt to the core Many found that stone before And there shall be many more Men and women dying for Pretended wealth galore I dreamt of freedom and better days When I was my own slave I saw that I dug to find a way When I was diggin' my own grave On my way I found a stone Found a stone Found a stone I started to dig to find some more Diggin' the dirt to the core On my way I found a stone Found a stone Found a stone I started to dig to find some more Diggin' the dirt to the core
