Oh yea, yea no, no



Hey listen mister, are you the diamond cowboy?

You the golden hero we've been waitin' for?

Hey listen mister; let me introduce you to

The magic carpet trick for every troubadour



We got the prophets weaving with the future

We got the "second-handers" suckin' your thumb

So, lay down your virtues gently to the devil

Hey lucky pilgrim, all your travels are done



Blast - off time on the bandwagon

Ride the rocket engine till you blow your mind

Decision time here on the bandwagon

How much your precious soul

You want to leave behind?

Hey



We got the painters

And we've got the preachers

We got the idolmaker's buildin' your shrine

And pretty women decorate your ego

From sour grape, we always bring you sweet wine

He listen mister, are you the diamond cowboy?

You the golden hero we've been waitin' for?



Blast - off time on the bandwagon

Ride the rocket engine till you blow your mind

Decision time here on the bandwagon

How much your precious soul, yea

You want to leave behind?



Like an emperor the sea is parted

As you walk unto the shore

Like a sword that will not cut you

Till you're bleeding from the core, hey, hey

Are you the diamond cowboy?



Hey what's the trouble?

Why do you look tormented?

Just polish the jewel until it shines no more

Comes a horseman, who thinks he rides forever

Goes a fool like none other before?



Blast - off time on the bandwagon

Ride the steamroller like a rodeo

It's glory time here on the bandwagon

Starring diamond cowboys, it's a hell of a show

Kick-off time on the bandwagon

Ride the rocket engine till you blow your mind

Decision time here on the bandwagon

How much your precious soul

You want to leave behind?



Na, na

I said hey listen mister, are you the diamond cowboy?

You the golden hero we've been waitin' for?

(Na, na, na)

Diamond cowboy
