The Shovel

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Trisha Yearwood] We were sittin' in a booth at the Waffle House When in walked a blue-eyed beauty with long, tanned legs I said, "Don't she look cute?" as your head spun 'round And without thinkin' twice, you said, "Hell, yes" [Pre-Chorus: Trisha Yearwood] The look I gave you started your decline Well, honey, you should quit while you're behind [Chorus: Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale, Trisha Yearwood] Step away from the shovel 'cause you're diggin' you a hole And the more you keep talkin', the deeper and deeper you go Well, thе more your lips keep movin', the more ground that you keep losin' So bеfore you get more in trouble, step away from the shovel [Verse 2: Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale, Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale] Sometimes, when a woman asks what you think Well, that don't mean she really wants to know (You're tellin' me, girl) You should've kept eatin' them onion rings You've ruined our meal, it's all your fault, let's go [Pre-Chorus: Trisha Yearwood, Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale, Jim Lauderdale] And even in the car on our way home You said you only liked what she had on (I was talkin' about the dress) Seriously? [Chorus: Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale, Trisha Yearwood] Step away from the shovel 'cause you're diggin' you a hole And the more you keep talkin', the deeper and deeper you go Well, the more your lips keep movin', the more ground that you keep losin' So before you get more in trouble, step away from the shovel [Bridge: Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale, Trisha Yearwood] Well, I don't expect you To read my mind, until I do And right now, I'm tellin' you [Chorus: Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale, Trisha Yearwood] Step away from the shovel 'cause you're diggin' you a hole And the more you keep talkin', the deeper and deeper you go Well, the more your lips keep movin', the more ground you keep on losin' So before you get more in trouble, step away from the shovel [Outro: Trisha Yearwood & Jim Lauderdale] Before you bury yourself in the rubble Step away from the shovel
