(Chorus 1)
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 lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Tiffany's!
Cartier!

(Chorus 2)
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 hot-blooded 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 those louses
Go back to their spouses
Diamonds are a girl's best friend

(Chorus 3)
I've heard of affairs
That are strictly platonic
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
But 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 can't straighten up when you bend
But stiff back or stiff knees
You stand straight at Tiffany's
Diamonds
Diamonds
I don't need rhinestones, but diamonds
Are a girl's best
Best friend
