Ariel Rechtshaid - Diggin' Up the Heart lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] Tony came back to town With his cap and gown That they give him at the State Pen Breaking and entering will do that Tony's mamma said ‘he's only human' Look what the cat dragged in From his next of kin Little sister hugs the tin man Tony, she's grown Ain't she's pretty in her little black dress? He's digging up the heart To know the price he paid [Pre-Chorus] You can hear the train When you're in the cage And you can smell the rain And you can see the sagebrush Threaten the highway But you can't drive And when you finally put the asphalt to the tire Looks something like Sistine oil and fire Ripping through the dark He's digging up the heart [Chorus] Digging up the heart Digging up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy can change Digging up the heart [Verse 2] One, two, three, four, five Oh, me, oh, my Count the reasons that you shouldn't be messing With the sons of perdition Never gonna take you down The straight and narrow We've been dreaming of a place You just can't get Like your burning in a pit Little brother, you're lying to yourself If you think you've changed [Pre-Chorus 2] It's just another heart Ain't there something strange When Tony left They were scratching at the door In particular, one wanted him more Her name was Christie The queen of Humboldt County 3 to 5 is a lifetime at that age Christie met herself another boy, got engaged Left him in the dark He's digging up the heart [Chorus 2] Digging up the heart Digging up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy can change He's digging up the heart He's digging up the heart Digging up the heart With a little luck When the times gets rough Digging up the heart [Bridge] Well the clerk's got his hands up And his mind's on the mark The 38 beneath the register He's digging up the heart [Chorus 2] Digging up the heart Digging up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy can change Digging up the heart He's digging up the heart Digging up the heart With a little luck When the times gets rough Digging up the heart [Tag] Well it ain't that strange Even boys can change Digging up the heart
