Diamonds & Gold
Tom Waits
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
The broken glass And the rusty nails Where the violets grow Say goodbye to the railroad And 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 Wounded but they just keep on climbin' 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 agreen 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 gather what's left of his clothers What some men will do here for diamonds What some men will do here for gold Wounded but they just keep on climbin' They sleep by the side of the road
