Yoko Kanno - Diggin' Lyrics lyrics

rate me

You know my daddy dug gates for his whole life

And he never knew nothing more

Yeah and his daddy done the dig like his old man

Who had dug before the war

And though she couldn't have known till I was born

My poor mama God rest her soul

Like them I come out diggin'

Well I was layin' out wire on number 9

Now when she come down to earth

And she was talkin' real loud

All about how she was gonna save the universe

I went and snuck a lil' peek in her blue eyes

And words just aren't enough

She had me off and runnin'

Could it be that I got bored and lonely?

Could it be that I'm just dumb and horny?

Could it be that Lady Luck has smiled herself on me?

Could it be?

She wore rattlesnake boots, a sassy mood

She had me laughin' in my tears

The most beautiful thing, so young and sweet

A little green behind the ears

She took me higher then I ever been

Lord, what have I been missin'?

Now she is all I'm diggin'

Could it be that I got bored and lonely?

Could it be that I'm just old and horny? (Could it be, now?)

Could it be that Lady Luck has smiled herself down on me?

She's smilin' down on me, yeah

Come a little closer

Let me show you how it could be

Spacy little cowgirl

Come a little closer to me

Spacy little cowgirl
