Tom Waits - Diamonds And Gold Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Broken glass, rusty nails where the wild violets grow
  • Say goodbye to the railroad, the mad dogs of summer
  • And everything that I know
  • What some men will do here for diamonds
  • What some men will do here for gold
  • They're wounded but they just keep on climbing
  • And sleep by the side of the road
  • There's a hole in the ladder, a fence we can climb
  • Mad as a hatter, you're thin as a dime
  • Go out to the meadow, the hills are a-green
  • Sing me a rainbow, steal me a dream
  • Small-time Napoleon's shattered his knees
  • But he stays in the saddle for Rose
  • And all his disciples, they shave in the gutter
  • And they gather what's left of his clothes
  • What some men will do here for diamonds
  • What some men will do here for gold
  • They're wounded but they just keep on climbing
  • And sleep by the side of the road
