Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

(Leo Robin/Jule Styne) 

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 

We all lose our charm in the end 

But square cut or pear shape 

These rocks don't lose their shape.

Diamonds are a girl's best friend 

Yeah diamonds are a girl's best friend 

Let's rock. 

There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer 

Diamonds are a girl's best friend 

There may come a time when a hardboiled 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 to descend 

It's then that those spouses 

And diamonds are a girl's best friend. 

Diamonds are a girl's best friend 

Yeah diamonds are a girl's best friend 

Let's rock again.
