LYRICS:
Well, I ought to be working in a coal mine
Neck deep in black lung soot
Swinging a pick at that mountain side
Halfway to China, I think I would
Fit right in where the sun don't shine
She's better off alone
Yeah, I ought to be working in a coal mine
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes
Well, I ought to be drilling for that black gold
Swimming in that Texas tea
I could make a killing all on my own
Selling my misfortune to a family
'Cause when I hit rock bottom
The deeper down I go
Yeah, I ought to be drilling for that black gold
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes
Well, I ought to be working for the railroads
Sweat pouring off my back
Hauling away a heavy load
It's a far cry from heaven down a cold steel track
And I can't take her with me
She's better off without
Yeah, I ought to be working for the railroads
Lord knows I'm good at leaving town
When it comes to love I ain't got a clue
What this heart of mine is supposed to do
It tears me up inside what I put her through
Still she won't let go
Well, I ought to make my living in a graveyard
Over my head in dirt
If I had a shovel I'd bury this heart
Six feet down and my last words would be:
"I never meant to hurt you
"I'm better off a ghost"
Yeah, I ought to make my living in a graveyard
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes
Oh, I ought to make my living in a graveyard
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes

Gotta love Brent

Brent, you know I come home to my children every day. Drink my coffee whilst my eyes are trying to shut and man, Southern Star invokes some carefree happiness.
My kid's should be grateful for your music just as I am
