[Verse 1]

How long are you gonna try to hide your heart?

Girl, you pull me in close, but you only let me go so far

I can see that diamond shinning bright, but it's buried in the coal mine dark

How long are you gonna try to hide your heart?

[Chorus]

Baby, I would dig down

To the bottom of the cold ground

Under the roots of your hometown

Where your skeletons live

Come on, let me show you what I'm worth

Put these never quitting hands to work

I ain't afraid of a little dirt

Girl, your love's a gift

And I ain't afraid to dig

I ain't afraid to dig

[Verse 2]

Can you take me behind blue eyes

And long blonde hair?

What you dream while you cry

Wherе you run when you get scared

Evеry inch I dig gonna make me rich

'Cause I know there's gold in there

Can you take me behind blue eyes

And long blonde hair? Baby, I swear

[Chorus]

I would dig down

To the bottom of the cold ground

Under the roots of your hometown

Where your skeletons live

Come on, let me show you what I'm worth

Put these never quitting hands to work

I ain't afraid of a little dirt

Girl, your love's a gift

And I ain't afraid to dig

[Bridge]

How long are you gonna try to hide your heart?

Girl, you pull me in close, but you only let me go so far

[Chorus]

Baby, I would dig down

To the bottom of the cold ground

Under the roots of your hometown

Where your skeletons live

Come on, let me show you what I'm worth

Put these never quitting hands to work

I ain't afraid of a little dirt

Girl, your love's a gift

And I ain't afraid to dig

I ain't afraid to dig
