Old 97's - Diamonds on Neptune

I got a room at a cheap hotel
I got a girl that I don't know well
I got a feelin' that I'm going to let her down
I got no cash in my bank
I got no gas in my tank
I got no good reason to stick around

They say it rains diamonds on Neptune
And Saturn's got the pretty rings
The surface of the sun is golden
But who's got time for heavenly things

I drove a Dodge to a dead-end town
The night they drove ol' Dixie down
I was dishin' out pearls to the local swine
You know I'm always on the move
Leavin' is what I do
I go from neon sign to neon sign

They say it rains diamonds on Neptune
And Saturn's got the pretty rings
The surface of the sun is golden
But who's got time for heavenly things

They say it rains diamonds on Neptune
And Saturn's got the pretty rings
The surface of the sun is golden
But who's got time
They say it rains diamonds on Neptune
And Saturn's got the pretty rings
The surface of the sun is golden
But who's got time for heavenly things
Oh who's got time for heavenly things
Oh who's got time for heavenly things
