Stones

Written by neil diamond



Jesus christ, fanny brice,

Wolfie mozart and humphrey bogart and

Genghis khan and

On to h. g. wells.



Ho chi minh, gunga din

Henry luce and john wilkes booth

And alexanders

King and graham bell.



Ramar krishna, mama whistler,

Patrice lumumba and russ colombo,

Karl and chico marx,

Albert camus.



E. a. poe, henri rousseau,

Sholom aleichem and caryl chessman,

Alan freed and

Buster keaton too



And each one there

Has one thing shared:

They have sweated beneath the same sun,

Looked up in wonder at the same moon,

And wept when it was all done



For bein?done too soon,

For bein?done too soon.

For bein?done.
