Let's just say I've got my soul set
I'm finding things out
Too many seem to have forgotten
This is a mighty small townEddy and Diamonds
Threw caution farther to the wind
Then all the cuss that said I don't belong here
And swore to God that it would not come back againThere's no one on the streets now
Except for black girls and cops
I will make no promise
If we decide to stayEddy and Diamonds
Always kept their distance to themselves
They came without a warning
And they swore to God that they would tell nobody else
They would tell nobody elseThen someone said that they came
To bury our gold above the ground
So every one could place blame
On any stranger that might come aroundEddy and Diamonds
Never killing more than they could kill
And just like the dust that settles down here
They swore to God that they would never leave
