he threw him a line and he brought him back home

a chain link fence was sent by one who cares and keeps his eyes on things
he landed right smack on twenty thousand acre lettuce patch
he had to walk back all soaking wet

but God had a plan so he saved your diamond dave
he threw him a line and he brought him back home

there's no time for ladders in a concrete river bed

and a man came by

when he was walking back

but they never did stop

diamond dave sang in the choir on a summer's day
I was there to here them say

but God had a plan so he saved our diamond dave
he threw him a line and he brought him back home

oh, diamond dave jumped into the California aqueduct
to the river that man made
to the river that man made
