Diamond in Your Mind Lyrics

I shook the hand of the president
And the pope in Rome
I've been to parties where I've
Had to be flown
They said everything was sacred
Nothing was profane
And money was something that you throw
Off the back of trains

Oh always keep a diamond in your mind
You've got to always keep a
Diamond in your mind wherever you may wander
Wherever you may roam
You've got to always keep a
Diamond in your mind

Steam of the gravy with little fried pearls
Floating like a necklace on a beautiful girl
Johnna says thanks to the food and land
And oh so ever grateful for
God's on my hands

Oh always keep a diamond in your mind
Always keep a diamond in your mind
Wherever you may wander
Wherever you may roam
You've got to always keep a
Diamond in your mind

She's got the milk of human kindness
And the fat of the lamb scared like a baby
Well she drives like a man
She lives outside of Natchez where
She operates a crane
She's like a wrecking ball no
Longer connected to the chain

Oh Zerelda Samuel said she
Almost never prayed
Said she lost her right arm
Blown off in a Pinkerton raid
Then they lashed her to a
Windmill with old 3-fingered Dave
Now she's a hundred-and-two drinking mint
Juleps in the shade

Everybody always keep a diamond in your mind
You've got to always keep a
Diamond in your mind wherever you may wander
Wherever you may roam
You've got to always keep a
Diamond in your mind

Would you help me sing it, come on
Always keep a diamond in your mind
Always keep a diamond in your mind
(Wherever you may wander)
Wherever you may wander
Wherever you may roam
Your gotta always keep a diamond in your mind
One more time, come on
Always keep a diamond in your mind
Always keep a diamond in your mind
Wherever you may wander
Wherever you may roam
Your gotta always keep a diamond in your mind

Always keep a diamond in your mind
Always keep a diamond in your mind
