Diamond In Your Mind

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 gotta always keep a diamond in your mind
 Wherever you may wander
 Wherever you may roam
 You gotta always keep a diamond in your mind
 Steam of the gravy with little fried pearls
 Floating like a necklace on a beautiful girl
 Johan 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 gotta 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 102 drinking mint juleps in the shade
 Everybody, always keep a diamond in your mind
 You gotta 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
 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
 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
