Paroles de ' Diamond Davey ' par Victoria Williams

Diamond davey jumped into the california aqueduct
Into the river that man made
Diamond davey had no plan so he floated downstream
On the waters of industry

But god had a plan so he saved your diamond dave
He threw him a line
And he brought him back home
A chain link fence was sent by one who cares
And keeps his eyes on things
He landed right smack on a 20,000 acre lettuce patch

He had to walk back all soaking wet

He wasn't the first and he won't be the last
There's no time for letters in a concrete riverbed
And a van came by when he was walking back
But they never did stop
They had some other business
Oh diamond davey sang in the choir on a summer's day
And I was there to hear him say

Diamond davey jumped into the california aqueduct
Into the river that man made
Into the river that man made
