Lyrics
Diamonds And Gold
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The broken glass
And the rusty nails
Where the wild violets grow
Say goodbye to the railroad
And the mad dogs of summer
And everything that i know
Chorus:
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 disciple
They shave in the gutter
And gather what's left of his clothes
Chorus
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
