Cracker Jack Diamond Lyrics

Artist: Don Williams
Album: I Turn The Page

Well he spent that summer going door to door
With a can of gas and an old lawn mower
Thatâ‚¬â„¢s a sure fire way to make a buck when youâ‚¬â„¢re fourteen.

Well he made a buck with no luck at all
Then he spotted a place where the weeds were tall
With a young girl sitting on the front porch eatingâ‚¬â„¢ ice cream.

Deep in the pocket of his grass stained jeans
Was some caramel corn and a plastic ring
Leftover from the week before
Momma didnâ‚¬â„¢t wash them thank the Lord.

Chorus:
Just like a Cracker Jack Diamond,
You never know when your gonna find one
They found love from that day on
The hand of fate put them together,
Their hearts will stay forever young
Like a Cracker Jack Diamond.

Well itâ‚¬â„¢s been five years since he gave her his prize
Now the sparkleâ‚¬â„¢s gone, but not in their eyes
And heâ‚¬â„¢s wanting to tell her whatâ‚¬â„¢s been on his mind lately.

He said, girl I ainâ‚¬â„¢t rich but Iâ‚¬â„¢ve been saving up
A little ever day â‚¬Ëœtil I had enough
Before he could finished he said, you know I will baby.

Deep in the pocket of his holy jeans
Was money for the preacher and a diamond ring
He took her back to that old front porch
Slipped it on her finger and he thanked the Lord.

Chorus:
Just like a Cracker Jack Diamond,
You never know when your gonna find one
They found love from that day on
The hand of fate put them together,
Their hearts will stay forever young
Like a Cracker Jack Diamond.

Now once a year she takes it out but it wonâ‚¬â„¢t fit her hand
But she wears it in her heart
Because thatâ‚¬â„¢s where it all began.

Chorus:
Just like a Cracker Jack Diamond,
You never know when your gonna find one
They found love from that day on
The hand of fate put them together,
Their hearts will stay forever young
L:ike a Cracker Jack Diamond...
