White Diamonds

A mean storm’s coming

Gonna plank the East

Freezing ice, then snow

Gonna be a beast

White diamonds falling

Might just fill a lake

The faster we scrape

The more that we make

Left a farm in Boone

In spring of 92

Nothing much till fall

Joined a highway crew

First winter came hard

But left a clear plan

A lot you can do

With a plow and sand

White diamonds falling

Gonna drown a lake

White diamonds falling

Make no mistake

White diamonds falling

Jusk ask us to scrape

Had a partner clean

The cash box one night

Guess she drove to Maine

A left at the light

No clue why she went

She didn’t go slow

Left us all waiting

For the next big snow

White diamonds falling

But none with a name

White diamonds falling

Make no mistake

White diamonds falling

Just ask us to scrape
