Lyrics:
I don't need you or your brand-new Benz
Or your bougie friends
I don't need love, looking like diamonds
Looking like diamonds
(Get sleazy, get
diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ah
Followed her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat
All his life
Blown by wildfire
Like a spark
Cause and effect
One loose word
Revolution
One kind act
Whole armies give thanks
Falling dove
All his life
Blown by wildfire
Like a spark
Cause and effect
One loose word
Revolution
One kind act
Whole armies give thanks
Falling dove
you diamonds
Bright, sparkling diamonds
But, believe me, dear, when I say
That he can give you the world but he'll never love you the way
I love you
still
She's got eyes like diamonds
They shine like Klondike gold
She's got eyes like diamonds
They shine like Klondike gold
Every time she loves me
yours until you have to go
I hope that we don't end up as passengers
I hope that we don't end up as passengers....for one last drive
shiftin' through
you diamonds
Bright, sparkling diamonds
But, believe me, dear, when I say
That he can give you the world but he'll never love you the way
I love you
Any other day and you might have gone walking by
Without a second look
Any other way but I'm still mystified
I'm just trying to change my luck
Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee
Half way home, we'll be there by morning
Through the Mississippi darkness
Rolling down to the sea
But all the towns
People say, when I walk by
There he goes a lucky guy
He got a big long car, a lotta money too
But I don't wanna be with me
If you're not with me
and break
And diamond shard in two in two
Ballistic timps and driving night
Signalling diodes and natural light
Tokyo by day stock exchange by night
Stock
in my pocket
How I wish I had oil wells in Texas to keep me supplied
With money while I sit by your side
Every day of the week
We would visit
he dropped off his passengers
Down at slack tide
I can't control anybody other than myself
Leave those half empty thoughts
High up on the shelf
If you
of the rails is all they feel
[Chorus]
Night time on the City of New Orleans
Changin' cars in Memphis, Tennessee
Halfway home, we'll be there by mornin'
Words and Music by Neil Diamond
Home is a wounded heart, haven't you heard the story?
He's out for love and for glory and she's waitin' home by
I did the digital dash (I did it)
I fucked that bitch on the passenger (one hundred)
I gave that junky a blast (one hundred)
I sell that dope
sitting by the sea
With her forty-four all around her
And her banjo on her knee
Phone her, can I? Everstanding
Just to see those two blue eyes
Witch
I don't need you or your brand-new Benz
Or your bougie friends
I don't need love, looking like diamonds
Looking like diamonds
(Get sleazy, get
damn door
We'll do this all before
They're coming back for more
So give me just a little, baby
Just something to get by
It's gonna last forever, baby
won't feel blowing, oh
I winked at a Cailin passing by
Says I, what if it's snowing, oh
Come rain or hail or wind or snow
I'm not going out
the god damn door
We'll do this all before
They're coming back for more
So give me just a little, baby
Just something to get by
It's gonna last
He told me sweet lies of sweet loves
Heavy with the burden of the truth
And he spoke of his dreams
Broken by the burden
Broken by the burden
won't feel blowing, oh
I winked at a Cailin passing by
Says I, what if it's snowing, oh
Come rain or hail or wind or snow
I'm not going out
