Diggin' Up The Heart

歌詞

Tony came back to town with his cap and gown That they give 'em at the state pen Breaking and entering will do that Tony's Momma says, "he's only human" Look what the cat dragged in from his next of kin His little sister hugs the Tin Man Tony She's grown, ain't she pretty in a little black dress He's diggin' up the heart To know the price he paid You can hear the train when you're in the cage And you can smell the rain and you can see the sage brush threaten the highway But you can't drive And when he finally put the asphalt to the tire It looked something like Sistine oil and fire ripping through the dark He's diggin' up the heart. Diggin' up the heart Diggin' up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy can change Diggin' up the heart One, two, three, four, five, oh me, oh my Count the reasons that you shouldn't be messing With the sons of perdition Never gonna take you down the straight and narrow Fever dreaming of a place that you just can't get Like you're burning in a pit Little brother you're lying to yourself if you think you've changed It's just another part Ain't this something strange When Tony left they were scratching at the door In particular, one wanted him more Her name was Christie The Queen of Humboldt County But 3 to 5 is a lifetime at that age Christie met herself another boy got engaged, left him in the dark He's diggin' up the heart Diggin' up the heart Diggin' up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy can change Diggin' up the heart He's diggin'up the heart Diggin' up the heart With a little luck When the times get rough Diggin' up the heart Now the clerk's got his hands up But his minds on the mark The 38 beneath the register He's diggin' up the heart Diggin'up the heart Diggin' up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy can change Diggin' up the heart He's diggin' up the heart Diggin' up the heart With a little luck When the times get rough Diggin' up the heart Well it ain't that strange Even boys can change Diggin' up the heart
