Diamonds & Gold |
| 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 |
| They're wounded but they just keep on climbin |
| And they 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 clothes |
| What some men will do here for diamonds |
| What some men will do here for gold |
| They're wounded but they just keep on climbin |
| And they 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 |
