Out Of This Hole

Well I'm diggin' myself outta this hole
They say it can't be done but what do they know
Take my shovel, I'm gonna use my hands
I'm digging outta this hole any way that I can

Well I did some things that I shouldn't have done
When I should have stayed put I was on the run
Now I've found there ain't no place to go
So I'm diggin' myself out of this hole

My mind is sharp and my back is strong
I've done a lot of thinkin' about right and wrong
I've made amends and I'm payin' my toll
I'm diggin' myself out of this hole
I'm diggin' myself out of this hole

Well it's dark and it's dirty and so far down
I've had me a good while to look around
There's no easy way out, ain't no trap door
I just don't wanna live this way anymore

But my mind is sharp and my back is strong
Well I've done a lot of thinkin' about right and wrong
I've made amends and I'm payin' my toll
I'm diggin' myself out of this hole
I'm diggin' myself out of this hole

Well it might take a while for the people to see
I'm not the man that I used to be
I was mean as a snake, I was blind as a mole
But I'm diggin' myself out of this hole

And my mind is sharp and my back is strong
Done a lot of thinkin' about right and wrong
I've made amends and I'm payin' my toll
I'm diggin' myself out of this hole
I'm diggin' myself out of this hole
I'm diggin' myself out of this hole
