lyrics

Yeah I'll do it
If nobody will
Cause I know what's gotta be done

It's hard work
And a dirty mess
But that don't mean it can't be no fun

When you get down to it
Yeah down in the hole
It's just movin around some dirt

I know it aint much
But it's all I can do
To try and help ease the hurt


When you put 'em into the hole
It get's so damp and cold
There aint no reachin 'em now
There's just,fillin in an old dirt pit
Where their body lies,
Where their soul used to sit


So I get up
Grab my spade
And start to walk across the field

Avoid the mourners
Maybe hear a story
Like that one about how they got killed

Loved ones cryin
Preacher's talkin about peace
As they all bow their heads

Maybe that's it
Maybe that's the problem
Nobody misses you til you're dead


When you put 'em into the hole
It get's so damp and cold
There aint no reachin 'em now
There's just,fillin in an old dirt pit
Where their body lies,
Where their soul used to sit


This rows filled up
This one is too
Man there's bodies everywhere

Pick you a spot
That's if you can find one
Except them last two over there

Yeah them two are mine
For me and the wife
In case I ever have to put her down

You want safe
Well there aint much safer
Than six feet beneath the ground

When I first started here
I just didn't know fear
Now it's time for my final shift
And it's weird
At the end of the day
Knowing how hard you worked diggin your own grave
