Lyrics

Wake up, wake up, darlin' Corey
What makes you sleep so sound?
The revenue officers are comin'
Gonna tear your stillhouse down
Well, the first time I seen darlin' Corey
She was standin' by the sea
Had a.45 strapped around her bosom
She had a banjo on her knee (I wonder)
Go away, go away, darlin' Corey
Quit hangin' around my bed
That liquor has ruined my body
Pretty women gone to my head
Oh, yes, oh, yes, my darlin'
I'll do the best I can
But I'll never give my pleasure
To another gamblin' man
Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
Gonna lay darlin' Corey down
