The French are glad to die for love Always fighting in duels But I prefer a man who lives And gives expensive jewels A kiss on the hand may be quite continental But diamonds are a girl's best friend A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental On your humble flat or help you feed your pussycat
Men grow cold as girls grow old And we all lose our charms in the end But square-cut or pear-shaped These rocks don't lose their shape Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Tiffany, Cartier
‘Cause we are living in a material world And I am a material girl
Come and get me boys
Black Star Roscor Talk me to Harry Zidler Tell me all about it
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer But diamonds are a girl's best friend There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer Thinks you're awful nice but get that ice or else no dice
He's your guy when stocks are high But beware when they start descend
Diamonds are a girl's best Diamonds are a girl's best Diamonds are a girl's best
Let's make love Everything's going so well
‘Cause that's when those lasses go back to their spouses Diamonds, are a those best friend.
