Gravedigger

1
Gravedigger start swinging your spade
They’re going to bring you a coffin
A coffin without any bell
Who will be in it, who will you bury
Don’t worry, he’ll be burning in hell
Gravedigger start swinging your spade

2
Gravedigger look me in the eyes
I’m going to marry a young widow
A widowed by my own hands
As I am a rider, I am a fighter
Why did she marry that man
Grave digger, look me in the eye

3
Gravedigger come look at my iron
Going downtown for some business
Business with an unholy man
Who’s gonna make it, who’s gonna take it
A hole in the forehead will tell
Gravedigger look at my iron

Bridge
And I’m going downtown, straight to whore house
I’ll beg on my knees for her hand
And I’ll catch him outdoors, and call a showdown
And when I’m done, she will be mine

Outro
Gravedigger, Gravedigger, Gravedigger, It’s time.
