Diamond In Your Mind

歌詞

I shook the hand of the president and the pope in Rome I've been to parties where I've had to be flown They said everything was sacred, nothing was profane And money was something that you throw off the back of trains Oh always keep a diamond in your mind You gotta always keep a diamond in your mind Wherever you may wander Wherever you may roam You gotta always keep a diamond in your mind Steam of the gravy with little fried pearls Floating like a necklace on a beautiful girl Johan says thanks to the food and land And oh so ever grateful for God's on my hands Oh always keep a diamond in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind Wherever you may wander Wherever you may roam You gotta always keep a diamond in your mind She's got the milk of human kindness and the fat of the lamb Scared like a baby, well she drives like a man She lives outside of Natchez where she operates a crane She's like a wrecking ball no longer connected to the chain Oh Zerelda Samuel said she almost never prayed Said she lost her right arm, blown off in a Pinkerton raid Then they lashed her to a windmill with old 3-fingered Dave Now she's 102 drinking mint juleps in the shade Everybody, always keep a diamond in your mind You gotta always keep a diamond in your mind Wherever you may wander Wherever you may roam Your gotta always keep a diamond in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind Wherever you may wander Wherever you may roam Your gotta always keep a diamond in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind Wherever you may wander Wherever you may roam Your gotta always keep a diamond in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind
