Lyrics:
ain't goin' down, I'm gonna find a way, hey, hey
Hey, man, I'm alive, I'm takin' each day and night at a time
Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by
To let a day
Slip on by
Without even seeing each other at all
But this is the time you'll turn back and so will I
And those will be the days you can
ain't goin' down, I'm gonna find a way, hey, hey
Hey, man, I'm alive, I'm takin' each day and night at a time
Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by
It's all gonna fade
Now I sit by my window
And I watch the cars
I fear I'll do some damage
One fine day
But I would not be convicted
By a jury
Like a whole furrow just tryna dig up some gold and diamonds and coal to find
I'm starting to slow and these lines are my nines
I just load up the most
my shoulder
We'll meet again some day
On the avenue
Tangled up in blue
I had a job in the great north woods
Working as a cook for a spell
But I
you can see it
It looks just fine
What a chance to play and sing
And have some fun
The day should never end
This will be a rocky mountain holiday
With
you know, after they picked that "Truth" beat
I was figuring I was gonna get some more work
But shit just wasn't poppin' off like that
I was
Hammer be the death of me!"
Some say he's born in Texas
Some say he's born up in Maine
I just say he was a Louisiana man
Leader of a steel-driving
I'm just an old chunk of coal,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day.
I'm gonna grow and blow 'til I'm so blue, pure, and perfect.
I'm gonna put
Now you know some fellahs, they want fame and fortune
Yeah, and other fellahs they just wanna swing
But all I wanted all my life
Was a TV set
that's where I'll be
I'm by the river please come back to me
Meet Me In Memphis my wild days are through
And nothin' replaces me next to you
He's
to take a break from it all
I'll be dancing on diamonds, I'll be skating on glass
I'll be chopping up wood, I'll be splitting the halves
An old AM radio
be doing well with trade.
Stamped, addressed, in odd fatality.
That evens out their personality.
With profit potential marked by a sign,
I can
can't you see
I'm just trying to be all I can be
Oh, yeah
Now first come the cash, then come the ass
Then come big blunts with big chunks of hash
When I
diamonds and cars, trick that's a shame
Say what you want, but I still figured
She left you cause you couldn't be, like them real niggaz
She was a hustler by
private thoughts were but she had some way of finding
Them out. He took dead-center aim but he missed just the same, she was waiting,
Putting flowers
the whims of the flesh
Before you get your paper right
Call me old fashioned
But back in the day
There wasn't no shorties in sight
First come job then
the bad old days
But I'm done turning diamonds to coal
Now just before dinner time
This old drunk comes knocking on my door
Say he's looking for some girl
"He's leaving via the roof, the bastard's got away
God always fights on the side of the bad man"
"I've got clean away but I'll be back some day
Just
"He's leaving via the roof, the bastard's got away
God always fights on the side of the bad man"
"I've got clean away but I'll be back some day
Just
"He's leaving via the roof, the bastard's got away
God always fights on the side of the bad man"
"I've got clean away but I'll be back some day
Just
The sneaker heads would be like "Ah, he got the Velcros"
I'm gonna rock some tags, only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I'm, I'm, I'm hunting, looking for
bone and then blow
Like a dusty cartridge from an old Nintendo
Those were the days but I bet you
I'm never gonna be broke again, no
I don't smoke but
Discuss these im just an old chunk of coal but im gonna be a diamond some day by john anderson Lyrics with the community:
