Grave Digger (lyrics)
VERSE 1
When I first laid eyes on her
I didn't know what to think
When she turned her gaze to me
My heart began to sink
And I knew at that time
This could not be good
Then she took my life away
Just because she could
CHORUS (Full)
She was a grave digger
Opening up that hole
She was a grave digger
Burying my soul
VERSE 2
Have you ever met someone
Who affected you that way?
They can make you live or die
Just by what they say
And you know that it's no good
You want to travel on
But every time you try to leave
You find the chains are on!
CHORUS (Truncated)
She was a grave digger
She was a grave digger
REPEAT VERSE 1
CHORUS (Full)
