Dig a hole
In the middle of the street
Dig it down
Dig it down
Six - feet - deep

You should know
What's really going down, below
Dressed in their best clothes
There are rows and rows and rows

Of dead man's bones!
I'm talkin' 'bout dead man's bones!
Wherever you go
Take a look at your feet
And down six feet deep
There's dead man's bones

Bones! Bones! Bones, bones, bones, bones!

Dig 'em up, (Dig 'em up)
Dig 'em up, (Dig 'em up)
Take 'em home (Take 'em home)
Take 'em home (Take 'em home)
They've been livin' (They've been livin')
Six -feet - deep

You should know
For when down you go (Down you go!)
Dressed in their best clothes
There are rows and rows and rows

In the basement (In the basement)
In the schoolhouse
In the pavement
In the water
It's a sound (underground!)
There's a sound (underground!)
Six - feet - deep

You should know
That the world was built on bones

Wherever you go
Take a look at your feet
Down six feet deep
There's dead man's bones!
Bones! Bones! Bones, bones, bones, bones!
