Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Listen, sweet little girl
Your father's gone below

I know, I'm trying hard
Trying to let go

Just let me lead you
To the ground where lies his heart

With all these tears inside
I'll surely fall apart

It's time to face your loss
Let your father go
He's gone, girl
Down below

Walk along this dirty path
Enjoy the failling rain

I'm scared to say goodbye
To face his hidden pain

It's time to free your loss
Let your father go

But I need your help, sweet sir
You put him six feet below

Woo, woo
I dug your father's grave
Woo, woo
I dug your father's grave

Got to find your fire, girl
Survival of your soul

Please, friend, show me how
I don't know where to start

It's time to face your loss
Let your father go

But I need help, dear sir
You put him six feet below

Woo, woo
I dug your father's grave
Woo, woo
You dug my father's grave

Woo, woo
I dug your father's grave
(You dug my father's grave)
Woo, woo
I dug your father's grave

Now we stand at your father's feet
Please, little girl, be brave

Hold me, I'll say goodbye
I'll be better off this way

Let me hear your heart and soul
I'll put him in his grave

I feel the sorrow lifting
As I kiss your lips in the rain

(You dug my father's grave)
I dug your father's grave
Woo
(You dug my father's grave)
Woo

Please little girl, be brave
Woo
(You dug my father's grave)
I dug your father's grave
Woo
(You dug my father's grave)

I dug your father's grave
