Lyrics by Buell Kazee, first recorded 1927 Original lyrics 210 Dig A Hole In The Meadow Wake up, wake up darling Cory, What makes you sleep so sound, The revenuer officer's a comin', Gonna tear your still house down. Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow, Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground, Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow, Gonna lay darling Cory down. Now the last time I seen darling Cory, She was standin' by the banks of the sea, A forty-four buckled around her, And a banjo on her knee. Chorus Go away, go away darlin' Cory, Quit hangin' around my bed, Your liquor has ruined my body, Pretty women gone to my head. Chorus Wake up, wake up darling Cory, And go get me my gun, I ain't no man for trouble, And I'll die before I run. Chorus
Sounds a bit like some of my hillbilly cousins in the Ozarks back then. I heard they ran a still. My mom discovered it by accident during prohibition. Oops
I remember my mum playing stuff like this, when I was a little baby boy in 1966-67, hanging around in the kitchen. She played old 45's with Buddy Holly, Bill Haley, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Sonny Boy Williams, Hank Williams etc etc, made me who I am today! =D
Right up there with top ten boppers , ain’t no greater sound than this on the sound systems at the big London events ( 2Rs and Bop a lenas ) to listen,see and take you to “Back in the day” !!
I wonder what Darlin’ Cory’s playhouse was? She sounded like a badass. A 44 round her waist and a banjo at her knee. She wasn’t going to give up without a fight, whatever she done

Original lyrics
210
Dig A Hole In The Meadow
Wake up, wake up darling Cory,
What makes you sleep so sound,
The revenuer officer's a comin',
Gonna tear your still house down.
Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow,
Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground,
Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow,
Gonna lay darling Cory down.
Now the last time I seen darling Cory,
She was standin' by the banks of the sea,
A forty-four buckled around her,
And a banjo on her knee.
Chorus
Go away, go away darlin' Cory,
Quit hangin' around my bed,
Your liquor has ruined my body,
Pretty women gone to my head.
Chorus
Wake up, wake up darling Cory,
And go get me my gun,
I ain't no man for trouble,
And I'll die before I run.
Chorus

Hi, this old folk tune was recorded under many different titles. But if you for example google "Darlin´ Cory" lyrics, I think you find it.
thanks :)
illgoggia Did you record your acoustic blues cover? because that sound amazing and I'd love to hear it.
+illgoggia This was originally an old bluegrass American folk tune you'll find on the rounder label
Rockabilly vorever 👌
iconoclaste
This beat is crazy.
I can dig it!
love rockabilly music.new & old tee...
great bopper
Very modern Rockabilly to sound authentic 50's.
Soo good!
Even Great !!!
Does anyone know who this artist is? he sounds familiar to the rimshots lead singer. Great song and a brilliant driving beat.
Stephen Stone apparently he was the lead singer of a 60s beat band from Kassel, Germany.
He then turned to Rockabilly.
Marcel Bontempi.
fuck was this 10 yrs ago
Yes it was
Not bad as a cover. But still prefer the Maddox Brothers and Rose version. Which was listening to about 20+yrs ago.
