Badlees - Diamonds In The Coal слова песни
by trade>From a part of Pennsylvania even Jesus couldn`tsaveWith towns named after Indian cheifs and UnionArmy GeneralsIt`s nowhere in particular but everywhere ingeneralHistory says Americans we have the right tochooseBut they never mention those of us whoseopinions aren`t usedWell the big flood came in `72 and tore therailroad bridges downWashed away our only means of gettingshipments out of townAnd the government won`t subsidize rebuildingthe Central lineSo there`s barroom fights and anthracite andloads of extra timeHistory says Americans we have the right tochooseBut they never mention those of us whoseopinions aren`t usedChorusThere`s diamonds in the coal everybodyignoresA man never finds what he ain`t lookingforA tree only grows if you nurture theseedThere`s too many gems this world doesn`tneedThe people left like rainwater flowing throughan open drainBut here I sit too proud to admit and too damnold to changeNow, the monuments at Gettysburg keep thetourists going thereBut we died too slow and quietly for anyoneto careHistory says Americans we have the right tochooseBut they never mention those of us whoseopinions aren`t usedChorus
