Well, I've been drivin', been pilin'
The miles up as high as I can think, all in my mind
This load I'm bearing's been tearin' me apart
An arrow through the heart
Can't seem to leave it behind
If I must confess
I've been running on no rest
Livin' on white bread lunch
Keeping one on the clutch
And I'll drive 'till I find what you stole in the night
My love
A diamond in the rough
A diamond in the rough
And all along to do her wrong
Never was the plan of the man
In my shoes
She did her worst, take my words
To paint a scene, a monster mean and lean
Singing the blues
And if I must confess
I've been running on no rest
Crazy just a touch
As of late I have a hunch
That I'll grind 'till I shine
In the darkest night
My love
A diamond in the rough
A diamond in the rough
I've got thorns but who else knows
Still a flower, quote, unquote
I've got thorns but who else knows
