[Verse 1:] Last night I dug your picture out from my old dresser drawer I set it on the table and I talked to it 'til four I read some old love letters right up 'til the break of dawn Yeah I've been sittin' alone diggin' up bones
[Verse 2:] Then I went through the jewelry and I found our wedding rings I put mine on my finger and I gave yours a fling Across this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home Yeah tonight I'm sitting alone diggin' up bones
[Chorus:] I'm diggin' up bones, I'm diggin' up bones Exhuming things that's better left alone I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone Yeah tonight I'm sittin' alone diggin' up bones
[Verse 3:] And I went through the closet and I found some things in there Like that pretty negligee that I bought you to wear And I recall how good you looked each time you had it on Yeah tonight I'm sittin' alone diggin' up bones
[Chorus]
I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone Yeah tonight I'm sittin' alone diggin' up bones.
