I'm gonna dig me a hole
I'm gonna bury my heart
I'll let it rest in pieces
Out in my back yard
I'll lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone
I'm gonna dig me a hole lord
I'm gonna bury my heart

Well it just stopped beating
One winter night
The very moment that she said goodbye
And one more lost love is too much to bare
Well this time it's broken beyond repair

I'm gonna dig me a hole
I'm gonna bury my heart
I'll let it rest in pieces
Out in my back yard
I'll lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone
I'm gonna dig me a hole lord
I'm gonna bury my heart

(Instrumental Break)

In the stone cold ground
I'm gonna chip away
A 6 feet down more
To it's resting place
All you memories come shake my hand
Of the sole survivor of this lonely man

I'm gonna dig me a hole
I'm gonna bury my heart
I'll let it rest in pieces
Out in my back yard
Lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone
I'm gonna dig me a hole lord
I'm gonna bury my heart

I'm gonna dig me a hole
Gonna bury my heart
I'll let it rest in pieces
Out in my back yard
I'll lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone
I'm gonna dig me a hole lord
I'm Gonna bury my heart

Gonna dig me a hole lord
I'm gonna bury my heart
