Dig Deep Songtext
von Jimmy Barnes

The streets where I played weren′t pretty
I had to grow up fast, fight to the last
I was scared, had to hide my pain
When the night turned wild again

And if you show just a little weakness
The streets'll make you bleed, bring you to your knees
I prayed for a better life
I had to learn to make it right

I had to dig deep for the spirit
I had to dig deep or lose
′Cause when you get kicked down, get back on your feet
The only way out is through

As I grew up, I remained so loyal
All the lessons that I learned, in my heart they burned
All alone, even then, I knew
It'd make me a stronger man, now


Inside of me was a wasteland
Deep within I yearned, as the time it turned
My heart was lost, but I knew the cost
No love was going to leave me empty

Yeah, I had to dig deep for the spirit
Dig deep or lose
'Cause when you get kicked down, get back on your feet
The only way out is through

Well, I′m older now and wiser
I look back and laugh at the painful past
I′m a better man than I was back then
I forgive, but I won't forget it

I still have to dig deep for the spirit
Dig deep or lose
When I get kicked down, get back on my feet
The only way out is through

Hey, I had to dig deep for the spirit
I had to dig deep or lose
When I get kicked down, get back on my feet
The only way out is through
