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 helpless cat

And men grow cold as girl's 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

Ah
Come and get me, boys
OW!
Black Star, Ross Cole
Talk to me 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 to descend

Diamonds are a girl's best
Diamonds are a girl's best
Diamonds are a girl's best friend

Let's make love...

'Cause that's when those louses
Go back to their spouses

Diamonds are a girl's best friend
