More Fun With Coffins

Today, I paid my Mom $20.00 for the privilege of using her iTunes to buy 16 Horsepower's Secret South and Low Estate. May I just say, HAY-ell yes.;)

Here's the most fun track I've heard as yet, off Low Estate:

Ditch Digger

I dug on down - for to see my true love
She is the only - girl I will speak of
Yes I went on down for to get my girl
An' free her from the Devil's World

I hear the sound of her heart a-poundin'
Fear was the hole, boy, that she were found in
The tears of my Lord,
Yes they run to the ground
Amazing Grace how sweet the sound

Yes I went on down for to see my true love
Yeah, an' I found trouble there
But even so, I thank the Lord forgivin' me
And givin' one so fair.


Rock on, you crazy Protestant hillbillies!

P.S.: Looked up 16 HP's other video, "Haw", on YouTube. It reveals that Edwards looks spookily like Jared Padalecki from some angles, particularly when he's playing the Devil (Edwards, not Padalecki. Not YET.;))
