Gravedigger Blues

Scarecrow burn and size it lead Make a crown of Bob while leave it under your bed I'll come running with a heart on fire I'll come running with a heart on fire I'll come running with a heart on fire And baby you can dig my grave Baby you can dig my grave Take a beat and a pull bean

Riding wrapped in hay, spitting to the middle, cover it with clay I'll come running with a heart on fire I'll come running with a heart on fire I'll come running with a heart on fire I wonder what made me stray Baby's got a jar of cider Used for making hearts melt Baby knows chicken wire, don't make no chastity

Belt, drive a stake and through the river Cappin' with a bone, hear that black pecan Be my tombstone, now I'm runnin' with a heart on fire Now I'm runnin' with a heart on fire I'm runnin' with a heart on fire Baby, you can lick the baby's got my heart's desire Swinging from her trophy belt

Baby knows a funeral pyre Don't get put out with no beaver pelt Dig a sack of potatoes Throw it in my grave Fill it full of buckshot Just count the days I'll come on and with a heart on fire all come on and wear the heart on fire all come on and wear the heart on fire

and baby you ayyy baby you'll make me dig in my grave baby i'm just counting a day bye for
