Living In A Hole 22 August 2007

Well since my baby walked out on me
I wanna crawl right in a hole and cry
It seems like life would be so much easier
If I just crawled right in a hole and died
Well I'm not saying that I wish it never happened or I wish I never met you or anything like that but
Sometimes I feel my luck has just run out.

If I called you up I don't know what I'd say
Except I'm living in a hole and crying
Well the phone don't work down here anyway
And I'm living in a hole and dying
Since you're up there and I'm down here it don't make much sense to try and be near you
And good gosh, my luck has sure run out.

I can see the sun shining up above
But I can't get out to breathe the fresh air
Well just cover me up with that old grey dirt
Unless you wanna help me outta here.

I'm afraid I might not get out of here alive
Cause I'm living in a hole and crying
If I don't tell my folks that I sure tried
I'm living in a hole and dying
Well I'll bless your lucky stars with my last breath
And I'd bless my lucky stars if I had any left but
Good lord, I'm sure my luck's run out.

Well I see the moon shining up above
But I can't get out to breathe no fresh air
Well just cover me up with that old grey dirt
Cause you aren't gonna help me outta here.

So I'll just sit around here and pray for better weather
While I'm living in a hole and crying
Cause I miss those times when we were together
Now I'm living in a hole and dying
Well I'll bless your lucky stars with my last breath
And I'd bless my lucky stars if I had any left but
Good god, My luck has just run out.
Good god, My luck has just run out.
