Peanuts And Diamonds Lyrics - Bill Anderson

(Bobby Braddock) 

On the poor side of Fort Worth 

In a rundown motel 

A rodeo cowboy 

Held a young Texas belle. 

He scooped up some peanuts 

Right out of the can 

And he whispered as he placed them 

In the palm of her hand. 

Baby I wish they were diamonds 

And this was north Dallas 

And I wish, oh I wish you were mine 

Oh, I wish Lord, I wish you were mine.

--- Instrumental --- 

On the north side of Dallas 

In a forty roomed house 

She remembers her cowboy 

As she takes off her blouse. 

She fingers the diamonds 

That cling to her breast 

Her teardrops fall freely 

As she looks to the west. 

And she says I wish they were peanuts 

And I wish this was Cowtown 

And I wish, oh I wish he was mine 

Oh, she cries Lord, I wish he was mine. 

Peanuts and diamonds sawdust and satin 

Lone Star and sparklin' red wine 

Cowboys and rich girls 

Just don't live in the same world.
