Refrain:
Dig[D] a hole, dig a ho[G]le in the mea[D]dow
Dig a hole in the cold, cold g[A]round
Dig[D] a hole, dig a ho[G]le in the mea[D]dow
We're going to lay d[A]arling[D] Corey down
Well, now the first time I seen darling Corey
She was a standing on the banks of the sea
A 45 Pistol on her forearm
And a banjo on her knee
Refrain
Wake up, wake up, darling Corey
What makes you sleep so sound?
Them darn coal officers a coming
Their going to tear your playhouse down
