Darlin' Corey (trad)
Debra Cowan

Wake up, wake up, Darlin' Corey.

What makes you sleep so sound?

Them revenue officers a'comin'

For to tear your still-house down.


Well the first time I saw Darlin' Corey

She had a wineglass in her hand

She’d been drinkin that cold hard liquor

With a low down sorry man


And the next time I saw Darlin’ Corey

She was standin’ on the banks of the sea

She had forty-fours strapped around her body

And a banjo on her knee



And the last time I saw Darlin’ Corey

She was standin' in the still-house door

With her shoes and stockin's in her hand

An' her feet all over the floor.


Go and dig me a hole in the meadow

A hole in the cold, cold ground

Go and dig me a hole in the meadow

Just to lay Darlin’ Corey down
