Old Chunk of Coal E

I'm just an old chunk of coal,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day,
I'm gonna grow and glow
'til I'm so blue pure perfect,
I'm gonna put a smile on ev'rybody's face.

I'm gonna kneel and pray ev'ry day,
Lest I should become vain along the way.
I'm just and old chunk of coal now Lord,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day.

I'm gonna learn the best words to talk,
Gonna search and find a better
way to walk, yeah!
I'm gonna spit and polish
my old rough- edged self,
'Til I get rid of ev'ry single flaw.
Well I'm gonna be the world's best friend,
Gonna go 'round shakin'
ev'rybody's hand, yeah!
I'm just an old chunk of coal now Lord,
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day,

Oh, I'm gonna be the cotton-pickin'
rage of the age,
I'm gonna be a diamond some day.
