Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend Songtext
von Julie London

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
