Cracker Jack Diamond (Album Version)

Cracker Jack Diamond - Don Williams (唐·威廉姆斯)

Well he spent that summer walking door to door

With a can of gas and an old lawn mower

That's a sure fire way to make a buck when you're fourteen

Well he made a buck with no luck at all

Then he spotted a place where the weeds were tall

With a young girl sitting on the front porch eating ice cream

Deep in the pocket of his grass stained jeans

Was some caramel corn and a plastic ring

Left over from the week before

Momma didn't wash them thank the lord

Just like a cracker Jack diamond

You never know when your gonna find one

They found love from that day on

The hand of fate put them together

Their hearts will stay forever young

Like a cracker Jack diamond

Well it's been five years since he gave her his prize

Now the sparkle's gone but not in their eyes

And he's wanting to tell her what's been on his mind lately

He said girl I ain't rich but I've been saving up

A little ever day til I had enough

Before he could finished he said you know I will baby

Deep in the pocket of his holy jeans

Was money for the preacher and a diamond ring

He took her back to that old front porch

Slipped it on her finger and he thanked the lord

Just like a cracker Jack diamond

You never know when your gonna find one

They found love from that day on

The hand of fate put them together

Their hearts will stay forever young

Like a cracker Jack diamond

Now once a year she takes it out but it won't fit her hand

But she wears it in her heart

Because that's where it all began

Just like a cracker Jack diamond

You never know when your gonna find one

They found love from that day on

The hand of fate put them together

Their hearts will stay forever young
