"Cold Hard Ground" lyrics

The trouble all started when he grabbed the gun from the rack
A visit to the ol' workplace let 'em all know he's back
Thanks his lucky stars; the ol' boss was still around
Cause tonight he'll be a sleepin' in the cold hard ground

Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
No one else is around
In the old hard ground
Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin'
In the cold hard ground

He took a little drive out to his ex-wife's place
A bullet to the head - no one can hear her moan
He felt a little bad that the dog would be all alone
Cause tonight she'll be a sleepin' in the cold hard ground

Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
No one else is around
In the old hard ground
Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin'
In the cold hard ground

A short-cut out to his sister's house
She was watchin' his kids, just outside of town
He killed 'em one by one, oh they didn't make a sound
And tonight they'll all be lyin' in tha cold hard ground

Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
No one else is around
In the old hard ground
Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin'
In the cold hard ground

The cops they are a'comin', hot on your trail
They say that every tombstone is written in Braille
You don't want to live, you know you're Satan hell-bound!
Tonight you'll be a lyin' in the cold hard ground

Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
No one else is around
In the old hard ground
Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin'
In the cold hard ground

Compared to all the others, my troubles are very few
And as I pile this dirt into a little mound
I say the lives of others are filled with sorrows a'plenty
At least they won't be lyin' in the cold hard ground

Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
No one else is around
In the old hard ground
Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin'
In the cold hard ground
