Oh, I wish it would rain And wash my face clean I want to find some dark cloud to hide in here Love in a memory Sparkled like diamonds When the diamonds fall they burn like tears Once I had a love from the Georgia pines Who only cared for me I wanna find that love of twenty-two Here at thirty-three I've got a heart on my right One on my left neither suits my needs No, the one I love lives a-way out West And he never will need me I'm gonna pack up my two step shoes And head for the Gulf Coast plains I wanna walk the streets of my own hometown Where everybody knows my name I wanna ride the waves down in Galveston When the hurricane blow in 'cause that Gulf Coast water tastes sweet as wine When your heart's rollin' home in the wind When the diamonds fall, darlin' They burn like tears
