Ferlin Husky - I Dug My Daddy`s Grave слова песни
(There`s anything shared at our house tonight since God called my daddy away)Tonight my heart is heavy there`s not a tear left in my eyesYou see my dad just passed away and I`ve told him so many liesThere were fifteen of us in our family and not a dime did we seeSo all alone there in the graveyard I had to dig my daddy`s graveAs I dug my conscience hurt me and as I rise my shovel highIt seemed my entire life was quickly flashing byI thought of how he`d beat me and I tried to make him madAnd I knew every lickin` he gave me hurt him twice as badI thought of how he`d leave us when our lunch was an empty sackBut I knew dad worked hard and for us kids he`d break his backThen I thought of how we`d hurt him why I`d take his core anytimeMaybe I`d have a wreck and land in jail he`d be there to bail me out everytimeI`d stand up in the space and curse him then I`d I leave so I wouldn`t see him cryThen he`d fall on his knees and say dear God give my son another tryAfter the funeral was over and the coffin was laid in its placeThey handed me the shovel and asked me to throw more dirt in his faceI wish I showed him how much I love him I could have had a tryBut I do have one consolation he knew God before he died
