Cold Hard Ground Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The trouble all started when he took his gun from the rack
A visit to the ol' workplace, let 'em all know he's back
Thanks his lucky stars, the ol' boss was still around
‘cause tonight he'll be a sleepin' in the cold hard ground

[Chorus]
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
No one else is around
Not in the old hard ground
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin’ in the cold hard ground

[Verse 2]
He took a little drive out to his ex-wife's place
A bullet to the head, no one can hear her moan
He felt a little bad that the dog would be all alone
’cause tonight she'll be a sleepin' in the cold hard ground

[Chorus]
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
No one else is around
Not in the old hard ground
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin’ in the cold hard ground

[Verse 3]
A short-cut out to his sister's house
She was watchin' the kids, just outside of town
He killed 'em one by one, oh they didn't make a sound
Tonight they'll all be lyin' in the cold hard ground

[Chorus]
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
No one else is around
Not in the old hard ground
Cold hard ground
Cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin’ in the cold hard ground
Let’s go!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
The cops, they are a comin’ hot on your trail
They say that every tombstone is written in Braille
You don't want to live, you know you're Satan hell-bound!
Tonight you'll be a lyin' in the cold hard ground

[Chorus]
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
No one else is around
Not in the old hard ground
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin’ in the cold hard ground

[Verse 5]
Compared to all the others, my troubles are few
As I pile this dirt into a little mound
I say the lives of others are filled with sorrows of plenty
At least they won't be lyin' in the cold hard ground

[Chorus]
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
No one else is around
Not in the old hard ground
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin’ in the cold hard ground
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
No one else is around
Not in the old hard ground
Cold hard ground, cold hard ground
Tonight you'll be a lyin’ in the cold hard ground
