Mark Knopfler, Emmylou Harris - I Dug Up a Diamond lyrics
[Mark Knopfler, Emmylou Harris - I Dug Up a Diamond lyrics]
I dug up a diamond rare and fine
I dug up a diamond in a deep, dark mine
If I only I could cling to my beautiful find
I dug up a diamond in a deep, dark mine
My gem is special beyond all worth
Strong as any metal or stone in the earth
Sharp as any razor or blade you can buy
Bright as any laser or any star in the sky
Maybe once in a lifetime
You'll hold one in your hand
Once in a lifetime in this land
Where the journey ends in a worthless claim
Time and again in the mining game
I dug up a diamond rare and fine
I dug up, a diamond in a deep dark mine
Down in the darkness
In the dirt and the grime i dug up a diamond
In a deep, dark mine
I dug up a diamond in a deep, dark mine
If I only I could cling to my beautiful find
I dug up a diamond in a deep, dark mine
My gem is special beyond all worth
Strong as any metal or stone in the earth
Sharp as any razor or blade you can buy
Bright as any laser or any star in the sky
Maybe once in a lifetime
You'll hold one in your hand
Once in a lifetime in this land
Where the journey ends in a worthless claim
Time and again in the mining game
I dug up a diamond rare and fine
I dug up, a diamond in a deep dark mine
Down in the darkness
In the dirt and the grime i dug up a diamond
In a deep, dark mine
