Tony came back to town
With his cap and gown
That they give him at the state pen
Breakin' and entering'll do that
Tony’s mama said ‘He’s only human’
Look what the cat dragged in
From its next of kin
Little sister hugs the tin man
Tony, she’s grown
Ain't she pretty, in her little black dress?
He’s digging up the heart
To know the price he paid
You can hear the train
When you’re in the cage
And you can smell the rain
And you can see the sagebrush
Fretting the highway
But you can't drive
And when you finally put the asphalt to the tire
Looks something like Sistine
on fire
Ripping through the dark
He’s digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
Well it ain't that strange
Any boy can change
Digging up the heart
One, two, three, four five
Oh, me, oh, my
Count the reasons that you shouldn't be messing
With the sons of perdition
That were gonna take you down
The straight and narrow
Fever dreaming of another place that
You just can’t get
Like the workmen in the pit
Little brother, you’re lying to yourself
If you think you've changed
It’s just another heart
Ain't there something strange
When Tony left
They were scratching at the door
In particular, one wanted him more
Her name was Christie
The Queen of Humboldt County
But three to five is a lifetime at that age
Christie met herself another boy and got engaged
Left him in the dark
He’s digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
Well it ain't that strange
Any boy can change
Digging up the heart
He’s digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
With a little luck
When the times get rough
Digging up the heart
Now the clerk's got his hands up
And his mind’s on the mark
The .38 beneath the register
He’s digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
Well it ain't that strange
Any boy can change
Digging up the heart
You’re digging up the heart
Digging up the heart
With a little luck
When the times get rough
Digging up the heart
Well it ain't that strange
Even boys can change
Digging up the heart
