Diamond Days |
| Some days you get diamonds |
| Some days nickels and dimes |
| Some days life’s a poem |
| Some days nothing rhymes |
| Some days you’re a winner |
| Some days you lose |
| Some days all you’re doing is paying dues |
| On a Wednesday I was playing in a biker bar outside Topeka |
| On that Friday I was playing on a blues cruise, going to Dominica |
| Ebbs and flows, like the tide |
| Some days you get diamonds |
| Some days nickels and dimes |
| Some days sparkle |
| Some days nothing shines |
| Some days you’re given |
| Some days you choose |
| Some days all you’re doing is paying dues |
| Tonight I’m sleeping in a 5-Star hotel, Wouldn’t ask for more |
| But I remember I wound up many a night sleeping on a stranger’s floor |
| Sometimes you walk, sometimes you ride |
| Some folks treat you like something under their shoe, ain’t nothin' new |
| Others greet you like a holy prophet, now what you gonna do' |
| You try to take it all in stride |
| 'Cause some days you get diamonds |
| Some days nickels and dimes |
| Some days you’re out of tune |
| Some days it all chimes |
| Some days you’re grinnin' |
| Some days you’re frownin, ' the blues |
| Some days all you’re doing is payin' dues |
| Some days all you’re doing is payin' dues |
