In the year 1843

A man was born who

During his lifetime

Was to have a profound effect

On millions of people

His name was Russell Herman Conwell

He became a lawyer

Then a newspaper editor

And finally, a clergyman

But one day, a group of boys

Came to Doctor Conwell

At his church

And asked him if he would be willing

To instruct them in college courses

They wanted a college education

But lacked the money to pay for it

He told him that he'd do all he could

As the boys left

A thought, an idea

Began to form in Doctor Conwell's mind

He asked himself

Why couldn't there be a fine college

For poor but deserving young men

Well, it was a great idea

He went to work on it at once

Almost single handedly

Doctor Conwell raised seven million dollars

With which he founded

One of the world's leading universities

And he raised the money

By giving more than six thousand lectures

All over the country

And in each one of them

He told a story called

Acres of Diamonds

(It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind)

Acres of Diamonds

(I don't know what you mean) Rock dude like a motherfucker

Acres of Diamonds

(It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind)

Acres of Diamonds

(I don't know what you mean) Rock dude like a motherfucker

The story was the account of an African farmer

Who are tales about other settlers

Who had made millions

By discovering diamond mines

And these tales so excited the farmer

That he could hardly wait to sell his farm

And search for diamonds himself

So he sold his farm

And spent the rest of his life

Wandering the vast African continent

Searching unsuccessfully

For the gleaming gems

Which brought such

High prices on the markets in the world

Finally, in a

Fit of despondency

Broke and desperate

He threw himself into a river and drowned

Now meanwhile

The man who had bought his farm

One day found a large

Unusual stone in a stream

Which cut through the property

And the stone turned out to be

A great diamond of enormous value

Acres of diamonds

(It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind)

Acres of diamonds

(I don't know what you mean, man) Rock dude like a motherfucker

Acres of diamonds

(It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind)

Acres of diamonds

(I don't know what you mean) Rock dude like a motherfucker

The farm was covered with them

And it was to become

One of the world's richest diamond mines

The first farmer had owned literally

Acres of diamonds

But had sold them for practically nothing

In order to look for them elsewhere

If he'd only taken the time

To study and prepare himself

To learn what diamonds looked like in their rough state

And at first thoroughly explored the land he owned

He would've found the millions he sought

Right on his own property

Acres of diamonds

(It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind)

Acres of diamonds

(I don't know what you mean, man) Rock dude like a motherfucker

Acres of diamonds

(It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind)

Acres of diamonds

(I don't know what you mean, man) Rock dude like a motherfucker

It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind

(I don't know what you mean, man) Rock dude like a motherfucker

It's in my mind, but it's in my mind, but it's in my mind

(I don't know what you mean, man) Rock dude like a motherfucker

But it's here on my mind
