Kishore Kumar Hits — Sideline - Digging My Own Grave текст песни

Исполнитель: Sideline

альбом: Breaks to the Edge

From the break of dawn to sundown, my daddy worked the mine
Well, the only time I saw his face was Sunday dinnertime
He'd cough and cuss for hours as he washed the dirt away
My mama always told him, "You're digging your own grave"
Digging your own grave
♪
He swung that hammer 30 years 'til coal dust filled his lungs
He never did breathe easy until his life was done
Oh, just to feed the family, I had to take his place
But I swore I wouldn't spend my life digging my own grave
Digging my own grave
♪
Way back in the mountains, each man had to choose
A life of crime or work in mine was all we ever knew
So I spent the great depression down here over coal
Until the day the timber caved and trapped me in this hole
Trapped me in this hole
♪
There's no way they can hear me from a thousand feet down
And God knows how quiet it is beneath the ground
But even here I believe they'll hear me when I pray
As I face my final hours digging my own grave
Digging my own grave
