I'm Just An Old Chunk Of CoalBut I'm gonna be a diamond some day I'm gonna glow and grow' Til I'm so blue pure perfect I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face I'm gonna kneel and pray everyday Lest I should become vain along the way I'm Just An Old Chunk Of Coal, now LordBut I'm gonna be a diamond some day I'm gonna learn the best way to walk I'm gonna search and find a better way to talk I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough-edged self Til I get rid of every single flaw I'm gonna be the World's best friend I'm gonna go around shaking everybody's hand Hey, I'm gonna be the cotton-pickin' Rage of the AgeI'm gonna be a diamond some day
