Lyrics

[Verse 1]

People they tell me

As they look upon my skin and bones

You're ragged and you're dirty

Hardly worth your weight in gold

For all of your suffering

No one gives a good goddamn

It's all about the money, son

We doubt you understand

[Verse 2]

Yodelay-ho

They say your diamond is too rough

Yodelay-ho

I'd never trade it for their love

[Verse 3]

Sometimes at night

I look upon the stars above

They never shine as bright

As my diamond in the rough

People they tell me

Just to give up and go on home

But to have no home to go to

Is something they'll never know

[Verse 4]

Yodelay-ho

They say your diamond is too rough

Yodelay-ho

I'd never trade it for their love

Yodelay-ho

They say your diamond is too rough

Yodelay-ho

I'd never trade it for their love

[Verse 5]

Sometimes I feel

Like I ain't getting nowhere

I'm walking down this road

With a burden I can't bear

I never let this world

Get too heavy on my shoulders

'Cause my diamond always will

Pull the weight that I'm under

[Verse 6]

Yodelay-ho

They say your diamond is too rough

Yodelay-ho

I'd never trade it for their love

Yodelay-ho

They say your diamond is too rough

Yodelay-ho

I'd never trade it for their love
