Diggy Diggy Hole

"Diggy Diggy Hole" is a song by Bristol-based online entertainers The Yogscast, celebrating the joys of dwarven life such as mining, treasure, and feasts. The song originated as a brief, improvised ditty during a Minecraft video. It quickly became a meme, inspiring remixes, fan edits, and eventually an official animated music video on the Yogscast YouTube channel.
In August 2023, TLJ announced the song would be the subject of a new Community Project video, created in collaboration with the Yogscast. The final video, featuring 811 participants, premiered on 1 December 2023 as part of the Yogscast's annual Jingle Jam charity event. It was also released as a single, with all proceeds from sales going to charity.
==Factoids==
The video thumbnail and single cover artwork reference the art from the original animated music video, and preserve one of its easter eggs: the futhorc runes spell out mostly random English words, but the second line to the right of the tallest shadow's head spells out "www dot youtube dot com slash ceeraanoo", the channel of the original video's animator.
The song has enjoyed enduring popularity since its creation, even being covered by Italian power metal band Wind Rose on their 2019 album "Wintersaga". 
==Lyrics==
As provided on the TLJ Community Projects page
Brothers of the mine rejoice!
Swing, swing, swing with me
Raise your pick and raise your voice!
Sing, sing, sing with me
Down and down into the deep
Who knows what we'll find beneath?
Diamonds, rubies, gold and more
Hidden in the mountain store
Born underground, suckled from a teat of stone
Raised in the dark, the safety of our mountain home
Skin made of iron, steel in our bones
To dig and dig makes us free
Come on brothers sing with me!
{Chorus}
I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, diggy, diggy hole
I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, digging a hole
The sunlight will not reach this low
Deep, deep in the mine
Never seen the blue moon glow
Dwarves won't fly so high
Fill a glass and down some mead!
Stuff your bellies at the feast!
Stumble home and fall asleep
Dreaming in our mountain keep
Born underground, grown inside a rocky womb
The earth is our cradle; the mountain shall become our tomb
Face us on the battlefield; you will meet your doom
We do not fear what lies beneath
We can never dig too deep
{Chorus}
Born underground, suckled from a teat of stone
Raised in the dark, the safety of our mountain home
Skin made of iron, steel in our bones
To dig and dig makes us free
Come on brothers sing with me!
{Chorus 2x}
