Turnpike Troubadours

Diamonds & Gasoline

Lyrics

Undercover
And blame it on the season
It ain't no kinda reason, baby
Why I come and go

I had a Lover
She felt as good treason
And you can't ask her if it's pleasin'
You can't ask the wind to blow

Lyrics continue below...

And I would buy for you a diamond
Or myself some gasoline
If I can't afford you darlin'
Then I can't afford to dream
And is it time I should be movin'?
Is it time I settle down?
Will I sit still or will I feel the wheels a-spinnin' 'round?

Well, I ain't the brightest
Bird that ever flew
I'm just someone you knew
A road you travelled on

All the colors
They shine and fade away
Well, they're just like New Year's Day
They're here, and then they're gone

And I would buy for you a diamond
Or myself some gasoline
If I can't afford you darlin'
Then I can't afford to dream
And is it time I should be movin'?
Is it time I settle down?
Will I sit still or will I feel the wheels a-spinnin' 'round?

Lord, I love ya
I wish you only knew
Well, I wish you had a clue
I wish you had a clue, you know

But I'm stuck here in Tulsa
With my Oklahoma blues
With a pair of concrete shoes
That got me sinkin' pretty low

And I would buy for you a diamond
Or myself some gasoline
If I can't afford you darlin'
Then I can't afford to dream
And is it time I should be movin'?
Is it time I settle down?
Will I sit still or will I feel the wheels a-spinnin' 'round?

The wheels a-spinnin' 'round
The wheels
A-spinnin'
