Shovel

Here we go again

It seems like I'm always hitting a dead-end road

I'm rock-bottom low

In my defense

I been busy as a broke man paying off the debt he owes

But I'm losing hope

Yeah, I been whiskey drinking

Wishful thinking

I've been on my knees

Praying please release me from this chokehold

I'm six feet deep and I could sure use a little rope

Shorter days turn to longer nights

It's no surprise that I'm in trouble

But every time I try to climb out of this hole

Feels like God hands me a shovel

Feels like God hands me a shovel

Make it make sense

How a million rights can't outweigh the wrong I did

Ain't I just a kid?

Yeah, it's been one tough act to follow

A bitter pill to swallow

But I've been on my knees

Praying please release me from this chokehold

I'm six feet deep and I could sure use a little rope

Shorter days turn to longer nights

It's no surprise that I'm in trouble

But every time I try to climb out of this hole

Feels like God hands me a shovel

Feels like God hands me a shovel

Yeah, I been whiskey drinking

Wishful thinking

I've been on my knees

Praying please release me from this chokehold

I'm six feet deep and I could sure use a little rope

Shorter days turn to longer nights

It's no surprise that I'm in trouble

But every time I try to climb out of this hole

Feels like God hands me a shovel
