There was a woman who loved her man
More than she loved herself
Dirtnap one day took him away
Left her screaming for help
And I said how does it feel
And I said how does it feel
Like all Gods promises are broken
Like all Gods promises are broken
Like all Gods promises are broken
Its like dying on Christmas day
Its like dying on Christmas day
Before all gifts are open
I knew a man who had a friend
He loved in his own special way
He held his friend close in his arms
And his friend just melt away
I had a love, a love of all loves
But the dirtnap covered her well
And the pain from the knife that cut us apart
Wont stop on this side of hell
