Call her up in the middle of the mornin'
5 o'clock on the dot, without a warnin'
Pouring my heart out into the phone
Half awake and barely asleep
Hours spent listening to her dreams
'Cause hearing that voice makes me feel at home

Well, it's a blessin' just to know her name
The sparkle in her eyes can put stars to shame
And it's a wonder if she'll ever think twice
On a wretch like me, wouldn't that be nice?

Smile brighter than them Arkansas diamonds
Dreams bigger than a Texan's horizon
Lord knows a poor man like me would do anything
'Cause your love is what I'm pining
Cut nice, polished and shining
A gem like you is hard findings
So keep on digging for this Arkansas diamond

She lives her life wild and free
Doesn't know what she means to me
Doesn't have a single clue in the world
But she'll always have my heart
No matter where we are
It'll always belong to you, girl

And it's a blessin' just to know her touch
Her sweet southern drawl will make you fall in love
And this lady that I hold so dear
Well, I'd be nothing without her here

Smile brighter than them Arkansas diamonds
Dreams bigger than a Texan's horizon
Lord knows a poor man like me would do anything
'Cause your love is what I'm pining
Cut nice, polished and shining
A gem like you is hard findings
So keep on digging for this Arkansas diamond

Keep on digging for this Arkansas diamond
