I'm just an old chunk of coal,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day.
I'm gonna grow and blow 'til I'm so blue, pure, and perfect.
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face.
But I'm gonna kneel and pray every day,
Lest I should become vain along the way.
I'm just an old chunk of coal, now Lord,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day.
I'm gonna the right way to talk.
I'm gonna search and find a better way to walk.
I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough edge itself,
Until 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.
I'm gonna be the cotton-pickin' rage of the age.
I'm gonna be a diamond some day.
I'm just an old chunk of coal, now Lord,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day.

I'm just an old chunk of coal, now Lord,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day.
