Diamond In My Pocket

Saturday night and the moon is out

Just shinin' over top of the pines

I'm headin' on down to my baby's house

Gonna take her on a midnight ride

Now I'm on these backroads winding down to Kickapoo

Creek

Dancin' and singin' to some good ol' boys like me

Baby, there's a shooting star,

That was for me and you.

So, hold me tight, make that wish, and pray that it

comes true.

I ain't sure of much,

But this I know -

I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart

of gold.

I brought along a little courage and coleman cooler

Just to help me out

My hands are shaking like canebrake rattler,

Nothing's gonna save me now

Might as well jump in head first; lay it all on the

line

What am I worrying about never gonna be a more perfect

time

Cause baby, there's a shooting star,

That was for me and you.

So, hold me tight, and make that wish, and pray that it

comes true.

I ain't sure of much,

But this I know...

I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart

of gold.

Well I didn't have money for a broadway show but the

crickets are singing to the radio.

And we got tickets, on the very front porchhhhhh.

baby, there's a shooting star,

That was for me and you.

So, hold me tight, and make that wish, and pray that it

comes true.

I ain't sure of much,

But this I know...

I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart

of gold.
