Tom Waits - Diamonds & 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

Theyre wounded but they just keep on climbing

And sleep by the side of the road

Theres a hole in the ladder, a fence we can climb

Mad as a hatter, youre thin as a dime

Go out to the meadow, the hills are a-green

Sing me a rainbow, steal me a dream

Small-time napoleons shattered his knees

But he stays in the saddle for rose

And all his disciples, they shave in the gutter

And they gather whats left of his clothes

What some men will do here for diamonds

What some men will do here for gold

Theyre wounded but they just keep on climbing

And sleep by the side of the road
