Bill Anderson - Peanuts And Diamonds Lyrics

Font:

Align:

(Bobby Braddock)

On the poor side of Fort Worth

In a rundown motel

A rodeo cowboy

Held a young Texas belle.

He scooped up some peanuts

Right out of the can

And he whispered as he placed them

In the palm of her hand.

Baby I wish they were diamonds

And this was north Dallas

And I wish, oh I wish you were mine

Oh, I wish Lord, I wish you were mine.

--- Instrumental ---

On the north side of Dallas

In a forty roomed house

She remembers her cowboy

As she takes off her blouse.

She fingers the diamonds

That cling to her breast

Her teardrops fall freely

As she looks to the west.

And she says I wish they were peanuts

And I wish this was Cowtown

And I wish, oh I wish he was mine

Oh, she cries Lord, I wish he was mine.

Peanuts and diamonds sawdust and satin

Lone Star and sparklin' red wine

Cowboys and rich girls

Just don't live in the same world.

And they both cry

God, I wish you were mine

Oh, I wish

Lord, I wish you were mine...
