My baby wants a diamond ring
My baby wants a diamond ring
I can't afford that diamond no more
My baby wants a diamond ring
My baby wants a string of pearls
My baby wants a string of pearls
Gotta get on that track and make them dollars fast
My baby wants a string of pearls
My baby wants a string of pearls
That gold is gonna be mine
That gold is gonna be mine
With a pistol in my hand gonna get it where I can
That gold is gonna be mine
That gold is gonna be mine
Old William has a stash of gold
Old William has a stash of gold
So I went to his place with my pistol and my grace
Old William had a stash of gold
Old William had a stash of gold
That gold is gonna be mine
That gold is gonna be mine
With a pistol in my hand gonna get it where I can
Old William had a stash of gold
Old William had a stash of gold
[Banjo Solo]
Old William had a stash of gold
Old William had a stash of gold
That gold is gonna be mine
That gold is gonna be mine
With a pistol in my hand gonna get it where I can
Old William had a stash of gold
Old William had a stash of gold
Old William had a stash of gold
Baby wants a diamond
Baby wants a diamond
Baby wants a diamond
Baby wants a diamond ring
This New Haven duo write bright and emotionally resonant folk music where sweeping strings elevate gorgeous melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 23, 2021
I am not sure how to classify this & it really doesn't matter... :) This album is superb & filled with incredibly playful melodies & wicked humour - especially in the lyrics. The humour in the lyrics reminds me a little of a modern day Tom Lehrer even if the music is totally different but it is the playing with words & having a ton of fun while doing it that does it :) Thank you so much to tesla_666 for taking me here! I love it & highly recommend it!!! bmurator
