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 |
