The Hole

A friend of mine bought himself a shovel Said Iam gonna tunnel me a mine He set out to be a rich man Happiness is what he thought head fine Got in to deep to see the diamond Down to dark to see the gold Now he wonat let go of the shovel And he canat dig out of the hole Deeper and deeper heas going down Driving his future right into the ground He thinks heas closer the further he goes But heas still on the bottom And he canat dig out of the hole I tried to throw the man a life line I tried to send him down a rope I donat think he hears me calling But everyday I pray and hope Somehow he finally gets the message Every spade of dirt he throws Only gets him closer to the devil And he canat dig out of the hole [Repeat chorus:] Maybe we could learn a little lesson Maybe thisall shine a little light Cause theirs no healthy way to mess with The line between wrong and right Use the one chance youave been given Cause once your in the ground and cold It's too late to start livin? You see you canat dig out of the hole [Repeat chorus:] It's hell on the bottom And you canat dig out of the hole
