Lyrics

I'm just an old chunk of coal
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday
I'm gonna grow and glow
'Til I'm so blue pure perfect
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face

I'm gonna kneel and pray every day
Lest I should become vain along the way
I'm just an old chunk of coal now, Lord
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday

I'm gonna learn the best way to walk
I'm gonna search and find me a better way to talk
And I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough edged self
'Til I get rid of every flaw

I'm gonna be the world's greatest friend
I'm gonna go around shaking everybody's hand
Hey, I'm gonna be the cotton pickin' rage of the age
I'm gonna be a diamond someday

Now, I'm just an old chunk of coal
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday
I'm gonna grow and glow
'Til I'm so blue pure perfect
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face

I'm gonna kneel and pray every day
Lest I should become vain along the way
I'm just an old chunk of coal now, Lord
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday

Hey, I'm gonna be the cotton pickin' rage of the age
I'm gonna be a diamond someday
