Conflict Diamond - Jamie Barnes

Written by：Barnes

I was dreaming of the mainland

When the tongue was at my feet

Out in the ocean

With devil cuts its teeth

I was singing out and swearing

On the graves of all my kin

I live the good life

The ways don't do me in

I know that gesus' blood never failed me

Never failed no one I know

And I'd taken up on cannings land

If the sea would let me go

You have my word

Oh my sweetheart

You have my word

It's like I walk alone in sierra leone

You don't come back from there and everybody knows it

Crossed your heart with needle in your eye

The finger on your hand where there's a conflict diamond

Conflict diamond

Hey hey

Hey hey

I was thinking up an image that I can brand into my skin

That would remind me of the parole that I've been in

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I know that gesus' blood never failed me

Never failed no one I know

And I'd taken up on cannings land

If the sea would let me go

You have my word

Oh my sweetheart

You have my word

It's like I walk alone in sierra leone

You don't come back from there and everybody knows it

Crossed your heart with needle in your eye

The finger on your hand where there's a conflict diamond

Conflict diamond

Hey hey

Conflict diamond

Hey hey

Hey hey

Hey hey
