I dug a hole, and I fell right down inside of it
This hole was so deep that I could not climb back out from it
Oh, save my soul
I have taken too long a break from it
I ran away to find a home, but I could not get away with it alone
I spun the wheel
Now I'm reaping what I've sowed from it
It's begging me to spin again
But I'm sick just from the thought of it
Oh, save the deal
May we never stray apart from it
Don't make it big enough to steal
To steal out from our pockets
Leave us alone
And keep treading water
And digging farther and pushing harder, and harder away
If there's a father with sons and daughters
Then you ought to slap him in his face
You filled my cup, and I drank right down through all of it
Please fill it back up, so that you and I could make a . . .
We've tossed and turned and sparred
'Till our worlds become a havoc
You left me right back at home
To deal with my bad habits alone
And keep treading water
And digging farther and pushing harder, and harder away
If there's a father with sons and daughters
Then you ought to slap him in his face
