24 Diamonds Lyrics

Kevin Gordon

Hey buddy I'm back in town
Got a room where I can come unwound
A little sound from my guitar strum
Drinking black coffee in the blazing sun

I saw your mama in the bar last night
She was smiling but sad inside
A bracelet made from your guitar strings
Little lights that spelled out your name

24 diamonds, 24 diamonds

We were 19 and playing in a band
You beat that Strat til the blood in your hand
Ran down the strings, onto the floor
All you wanted was more more more

24 diamonds, 24 diamonds

Hey buddy what happened to you
How'd you get lost in Baton Rouge
There's a thousand bucks missing, there's a .38 shell
There's things you know that the facts won't tell

That bar we used to play burned down to ash
Pappy the Greek blew town in a new Cadillac
The past is steady leaving, every moment gone
In the blinding fade I can hear your song

24 diamonds, 24 diamonds

Hey buddy I'm back in town
Got a room where I can come unwound
A little sound from my guitar strum
Drinking black coffee in the blazing sun
