Bluegrass Songs - Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Darling Corey
 Wake up, wake up, darling Corey What makes you sleep so sound The revenue officers are coming They're fonna tear your still-house down 
Well the first time I seen darling Corey She was sitting by the banks of the sea Had a forty-four around her body And a five-string on her knee
 * Refrain 
Go away, go away darling Corey Quit hanging around my bed Your liquor has urined my body Pretty women gone to my head
 * Refrain 
Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow Dig a hole in the cold damp ground Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow We're gonna lay darling Corey down
 * Refrain 
Can't you hear them bluebirds a-singing Don't you hear that mournful sound They're preaching darling Corey's funeral In some lonesome graveyard ground
 * Refrain
