Grave digger, grave digger Send me on my way Release me to this earth within' this shallow grave
Grave digger, grave digger Bring me to my knees Forget what I have done Forgive me if you please Save me if you can The time for me has come Let me be the one that got away
Grave digger, grave digger Slowly fill my grave Whisper to your god Allow me to be saved
Grave digger, grave digger Pray for my lost soul Release me from this earth Allow me to grow old
Grave digger, grave digger Rest these weary bones Help me on my way Don't let me die alone
Grave digger, grave digger Take what I have left Give it to the lost Upon my dying breath
