Darling Corey

Darling Corey - The Stanley Brothers

Written by：DR

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 darling Corey down

Well the last time I seen darling Corey

On the banks of the big blue sea

Had a forty four around her body

And a banjo on her knee

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 darling Corey down

Wake up wake up darling Corey

And go get me my gun

I ain't no man for trouble

But I'll die before I run

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 darling Corey down

Wake up wake up darling Corey

What makes you sleep so sound

The sheriff and his hound dogs a coming

They're gonna tear your still house down

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 darling Corey down
