Lyrics:

The French Are Glad To Die For Love
they Delight In Fighting 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 Girls Best Friend
a Kiss May Be Grand
but It Wont 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-Shaped
these Rocks Dont Lose Their Shape
diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend

tiffanys. . . Cartier. . .
black Frost. . .
pearl bossed. . .
talk To Me, Harry Winston, Tell Me All About It!

there May Come A Time When A Lass Needs A Lawyer
but Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend
there May Come A Time When A Hard-Boiled Employer
thinks Youre Awful Nice
but Get That Ice
or Else No Dice

hes Your Guy When Stocks Are High
but Beware When They Start To Descend
cos Thats When Those Louses
go Back To Their Spouses
diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend

ive Heard Of Affairs Which Are Strictly Platonic
but Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend
and I Think Affairs That You
must Keep Masonic
are Better Bets
if Little Pets Get Big Baguettes

time Rolls On, And Youth Is Gone
and You Cant Straighten Up When You Bend
but Stiff Back, Or Stiff Knees
you Stand Straight At Tiffanys

diamonds, Diamonds. . .
i Dont Mean Rhinestones
diamonds. . .
are A Girls Best. . . Best Friend
