Diamonds & Gold Lyrics by Kenny Wayne Shepherd

Lay It On Down

0

Yeah, you got what you want
Slave to that dollar bill
Had to get you some
And damn, you're hungry still
Yeah you think you a king
The whole world's yours to take
But we got something you can't buy
Love's something you make
That's how we roll, that's how we roll
Can't sell your soul, not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
The high and the low, you reap what you sow
Not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
There ain't no turning back
Turning back the hands of time
You can't change the past
But something's gonna change your mind
Yeah, there is more to this
All the light you can see
The more you get, the less you got
The truth is gonna set you free
That's how we roll, that's how we roll
Can't sell your soul, not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
The high and the low, you reap what you sow
Not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
Tell me it don't matter, tell me you don't care
Tell yourself the ends justify the means, and life ain't fair
I don't have an answer, that ain't what this is
But all I know, we're all the same, you get just what you give
That's how we roll, that's how we roll
Can't sell your soul, not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
The high and the low, you reap what you sow
Not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
That's how we roll
Can't sell your soul, not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
The high and the low, you reap what you sow
Not for diamonds, diamonds & gold
