Diamond Ring - The New Basement Tapes

作词：Jim James/Bob Dylan

作曲：Jim James/Bob Dylan

If I ever get back to St Louis again

There's gonna be some changes made

I'm gonna find old Alice

And right away where I left off

It's gonna be just as if I stayed

That old organ grinder's gonna wind his box

And the knife sharpener's gonna sing

When I get back to St Louis again

I'm gonna buy that diamond ring

Diamond ring

Diamond ring

Shine like gold

Behold that diamond ring

If I ever get back to St Louis again

Everybody's gonna smile

One of the Mack girls

Dragged me up to Washington

I got stuck there for a while

She gave me more misery than a man can hold

And I took her bad advice

Now I don't aim to bother anyone

I have paid that awful price

Diamond ring

Diamond ring

Shine like gold

Behold that diamond ring

If I ever get back to St Louis again

That diamond ring is gonna shine

That old burlesque dancer is gonna bum around

And everything's gonna be fine

I'm gonna settle up my accounts with lead

And leave the rest up to the law

Then I'm gonna marry the one I love

And head out for Wichita

Diamond ring

Diamond ring

Shine like gold

Behold that diamond ring
