Diamonds Are Forever

There's some land by the river that's a little overgrown

You could barely see the bases 'cause nobody mowed

Dad's hand me down glove made a good home plate

Only strikes if you swung, one beat up ball

Was a homer if you hit it off the warehouse wall

Got yelled at for getting home to dinner late

Oh, man I miss that place

You can always go back where you held that bat

Felt the good sting of a hot one on glove leather

The feeling you always remember

It's just green grass, some flat bill hats, who's on first, who's gonna catch

In that chain link sunshine red dirt two strike pressure

Some games are made to forget

But Diamonds Are Forever

Josh kept playing, Mike joined the Marines

Greg went off and got himself a degree

I packed up my truck, moved to Tennessee

But when I see those boys, it's hometown talk

And I'm stealin' home, turning back the clock

You can always go back where you held that bat

Felt the good sting of a hot one on glove leather

The feeling you always remember

It's just green grass, some flat bill hats, who's on first, who's gonna catch

In that chain link sunshine red dirt two strike pressure

Some games are made to forget

But Diamonds Are Forever

I might find a band of gold a couple years down the road

Buy a Tee Ball set and form a little team of my own, make sure they know

You can always go back, yeah

You can always go back, yeah

You can always go back where you held that bat

Felt the good sting of a hot one on glove leather

The feeling you always remember, oh

It's just green grass, and flat bill hats, who's on first, who's gonna catch

In that chain link sunshine red dirt two strike pressure

Some games are made to forget

But Diamonds Are Forever

Oh, Diamonds Are Forever
