Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend Lyrics & Chords By Megan Hilty

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 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
These rocks don't loose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Romance is divine and I'm not one to knock it
But diamonds are a girls best friend
Romance is divine, yes, but where can you hack it when the flame is gone
Just try and pawn a tired done one
Some men buy and some just sigh
That to make you their bride they intend
But buyers or sighers they're such goddamn liars
Diamonds are a girls 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
