Dan Goodwin - Lay My Lily Down lyrics

[Chorus] Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow To lay my Lily down Lay my Lily down [Verse 1] The first time I saw my new-born girl She was pulling on her moma's hair The sun coming through the window I'd have known her anywhere [Chorus] Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow To lay my Lily down Lay my Lily down *Gonna lay my Lily down Lay my Lily down* [Verse 2] Wake up, wake up my sleeping child Come learn to laugh at hell 'Cause the Pharoah's fire in your daddy's blood Runs in your veins as well [Chorus] Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Oh, lay my Lily down Lay my Lily down [Verse 3] The last time I saw little Lily She was staring at the windswept sea With two pearl-handled pistols And a banjo on her knee [Chorus] Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow To lay my Lily down [Chorus] Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Oh, lay my Lily down Oh, lay my Lily down Lay my Lily down Oh, lay my Lily down Lay my Lily down...
