I think it's pretty obvious that this song is abut a guy breaking up with his girlfriend who got him into a lot of trouble (Digging trouble with your shovel you serve it up in so many different ways) and now he knows she's bad news and he "got so burned" that he learned to just tune her out and ignore her pleas for threm to get back together.
