0:11A kiss on the hand may be quite continental
0:16But diamonds are a girl's best friend
0:22A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental
0:27On your humble flat
0:30Or help you at the automat
0:34Men grow cold as girls grow old
0:38And we all lose our charms in the end
0:44But square-cut or pear-shaped
0:47Those rocks don't lose their shape
0:50Diamonds are a girl's best friend
1:04There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer
1:09But diamonds are a girl's best friend
1:15There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer
1:20Thinks you're awful nice
1:23But ‘get that ice' or else ‘no dice'
1:27He's your guy when stocks are high
1:31But beware when they start to descend
1:37It's then that those louses
1:40Go back to their spouses
1:43Diamonds are a girl's best friend
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-shaped Those 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 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 It's then that those louses Go back to their spouses Diamonds are a girl's best friend
