Diggin' Up The Heart

Tony came back to town With his cap and gown That they give him at the state Him breaking it every few day Tony's mamma said 'he's only human' Look what the cat dragged in Papa snatched your kin Little sister hugs the tin man Tony, she's grown And she's pretty, in her little black dress He's digging up the heart To know the price he paid You heard me in the train When you're in the cage And you can smell the rain And you can see the sage While fretting the highway But you can try And when you finally put the asphalt to the tyre Looks something like sistine Or a fire Ripping through the dark He's digging up the heart Digging up the heart Digging up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy can change Digging up the heart One, two, three, four, five Oh, me, oh, my Count the reasons that you shouldn't be messing With the sons of perdition That were gonna take you down The straight and narrow You dreaming of another place You just can't get Like the workmen in the pit Little brother, you're a liar to yourself I didn't think you'd changed It's just another heart Ain't there something strange When tony left They were scratching at the door In particular, one, one, hitting more Her name was christie The queen of old folk county But what we'd have loved is the right time, that there day Because he met on something nothing, boy got engaged Lessons in the dark He's digging up the heart 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 With the times getting rough Digging up the heart Well the perp's got his hands up And his mind's on the march The 30 day beneath the register He's digging up the heart 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 With the times getting rough Digging up the heart Well it ain't that strange Any boy could change Digging up the heart
