Well, I've been out here diggin' a hole
And the madder I get the deeper I go
Maybe you're thinkin' I'm a fool
Well, maybe I'm diggin' this hole for you

I got bones to pick with you
I should have known you can't be true
Me and the devil, we want what's due
And you should know when you get home
I got bones to pick with you

Shovel and dirt, and loaded lead
Whiskey burnin' up my hand
You can tell your friend I know the news
And I'll deal with him when I'm done with you

I got bones to pick with you
I should have known you can't be true
Me and the devil, we want what's due
And you should know when you get home
I got bones to pick with you

Yeah, maybe you best just leave this town
Yeah, prob'ly 'fore the sun goes down
'Cause the devil already knows my name
And you can ask him yourself when I see you again

Bones to pick with you
I should have known you can't be true
Me and the devil, we want what's due
And you'll just know when you get home
I got bones

I got bones to pick with you
I should have known you can't be true
Me and the devil, we want what's due
And you'll just know when you get home
I got bones to pick with you

Well, I've been out here diggin' a hole
I'm gonna put you in nice and slow
Well, maybe you're thinkin' I'm your fool
Well, maybe I'm diggin' this hole for you
