Waylon Jennings, Billy Joe Shaver, Willie Nelson & Kris Kristofferson - Honky Tonk Heroes

I'm Just An Old Chunk Of Coal

I'm just an old chunk of coal,
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday.
I'm gonna grow and glow till I'm so plu-pure perfect,
Gonna put a smile on everybody's face.
I'm gonna kneel and pray every day,
Lest I should become vain along the way.
I'm just an old chunk of coal now, Lord,
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday.
I'm gonna learn the best words to talk,
Gonna search and find a better way to walk, yeah
I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough-edged self,
'Til I get rid of every single flaw.
Well I'm gonna be the world's best friend.
Gonna go 'round shakin' everybody's hand, yeah
I'm just an old chunk of coal now, Lord,
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday.
Oh I'm gonna be the cotton pickin' rage of the age,
I'm gonna be a diamond someday.
