diana jones - jonathan byrd lyrics

Loading...

diana was a cherokee
pretty as you’d ever see
with blue eyes and long black hair
and a wild streak from here to there
and reservation life was slow
so she packed her bags to go
moved to georgia
and took the name diana jones

diana ran the dew drop inn
wily as a mountain cat
and kept a room behind the bar
for any man who needed that
and people talk about her still
how she’d take a twenty dollar bill
and write across jackson’s face
“diana jones”

she brought all the gold in georgia, back shining
twenty bucks at a time

and harlon wore the badge in town
he was always hanging ’round
but ever since diana died
you hardly see him on this side
his wife used to come for him
and drag him out of the dew drop inn
it wasn’t fit for a family man to know diana jones

diana made the front page news
the night she went out on the loose
heartbroken with a gun in her hand
and in love with a married man
neighbors called the station scared
and harlon had to go down there
and something went wrong somewhere for diana jones

but she brought all the gold in georgia, back shining
twenty bucks at a time

[instrumental]

and no one knows what happened then
between diana and five armed men
shots were fired and words were said
two men and diana dead
and things went on the way they do
the papers filled with other news
the wild died in harlon, too
with diana jones

i’ve only seen him one time since
he come into the dew drop inn
and bought all the old boys a round
and went to lay his money down
gave a twenty dollar bill a kiss
and said “i hate to part with this”
and right across jackson’s face it said “diana jones”

she brought all the gold in georgia, back shining
twenty bucks at a time
