My girlfriend lives in the ground   My friends ask why she's not around   She won't come home   I'm so alone you'll never know      You can't bury love   You've gotta dig it up   Yeah, you've gotta live it up      I take her flowers each day   I place them over her grave, I want her back   Because I look so bad, so bad in black   Like a maniac      You can't bury love   You've gotta dig it up   Yeah, you've gotta live it up      Please, darling, come home to me   Well, I'll make you so happy, you will see   I'll paint your room in pink and blue   I'll even choose the color scheme for you      You can't take away my love   I'll never give it up   Yeah, I'm gonna dig it up      Oh honey   No, you can't make me   Don't, don't, don't, don't tell me, I don't want to know      My girlfriend lives in the ground   My friends, you ask me why she's six feet down   I can't tell you why 'cos if I even try   I'd fall down flat on my face      And I'd cry, "You can't take away my love"   Gonna dig it up, yeah, I'm gonna live it up   I'm gonna have to dig it up, dig it up   I'm never gonna stop with that loving cup   Gotta fill it up
