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 at the automat

Men grow cold as girls grow old

And we all lose our charms in the end

But square cut or pear shape

These rocks don't lose their shape

Diamonds are a girl's best friend

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 hardboiled employer

Thinks you're awful nice

Yes baby but get that ice or else no dice

He's your guy when stocks are high

But beware when they start to descend

It's then that those louses

Go back to their spouses

Diamonds are a girl's best

Oww daddy for me 48 karats

One for eight stake

Oh But honey

If you think about our last can avide

Maybe you can make too more huhh

Deftly Ohh the size is nice
