Shovels & dirt


Mama never told 'em there's a devil in me
I got a mouth full of rotten and a heart full of greed
Shovels and dirt, shovels and dirt
Well it ain't worth living if you don't get hurt
Alright!

Cowboy hats and crooked teeth
With a sick shooting pistol just out of my reach
Shovels and dirt, shovels and dirt
Well it ain't worth living if you don't get hurt

I got a head full of darkness and darkness is good
Cause if we all die young then we don't get hurt
Alright!

Well demons pull me side to side again
Yeah but I'm scared of sleeping, I hate my friends
Shovels and dirt, shovels and dirt
Well it ain't worth living if you don't get hurt

I got a head full of darkness and darkness is good
Cause if we all die young then we don't get hurt
I got a head full of darkness and darkness is good
Cause if we all die young then we don't get hurt

I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky
It keeps us moving, it keeps us moving
I put a banjo up into the sky

I got a head full of darkness and darkness is good
Cause if we all die young then we don't get hurt
I got a head full of darkness and darkness is good
Cause if we all die young then we don't get hurt

Mama never told 'em there's a devil in me
I got a sick shooting pistol and I'm ready to leave

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
