Abraham & the Old Gods - Stick & Spade
Momma ran off to the big city
And daddy never made it through the night
No one else ever talked to me much
They'd say that boy ain't right
So I got me a job at the top of the hill
Digging holes on summer nights
It buys my beer at the tavern
I got a hog and my chickens I'm all right
So I watched all y'all get older
And Id think about you every night
Looking down in the last hole Ill ever make
It's a picture broader than sight
Stick and Spade we've come a long way
And now we're both headed towards the west
Your handle's split and so is my old back
Dig a hole and lay me down to rest
Lay me down to rest
Stick and Spade you're still with me every day
Wherever my soul goes
Stick and Spade the best friend I ever made
The only family that I'll ever know
That Ill ever know
