Tom Waits - Diamonds And Gold

Rain Dogs
(1985)
Diamonds And Gold
Tom Waits

Broken glass, rusty nails where the wild violets grow
And everything that I know
Say goodbye to the railroad, the mad dogs of summer
What some men will do here for diamonds

And sleep by the side of the road
What some men will do here for gold
They're wounded but they just keep on climbing
There's a hole in the ladder, a fence we can climb

Go out to the meadow, the hills are aMad as a hatter, you're thin as a dime
Sing me a rainbow, steal me a dream
Small
And all his disciples, they shave in the gutter
But he stays in the saddle for Rose
And they gather what's left of his clothes

What some men will do here for diamonds
They're wounded but they just keep on climbing
And sleep by the side of the roadWhat some men will do here for gold
