Don't Love Make A Diamond Shine lyrics
by Byrd Tracy
Tommy and Janey hardly eighteenHoldin' hands at the jewelry storeEyes open wide starin' insideAt the ring that they wanted for herMister bring it closer mister can we hold itI think it's gonna fit just fineAs he slipped it on her hand Janey kissed her manDon't love make a diamond shineDon't love make a diamond shineIt don't matter if it costs a dimeDang thing looks like a million bucksSittin' on the hand of a girl in loveA perfect fifteen caratIs duller than dirt if the heart don't wear itWith three little words it'll knock you blindDon't love make a diamond shineThere's a rich lady with a new MercedesLivin' up in a high riseShe got a big ol' rock on her left handThat looks cheaper than a Cracker Jack prize'Cause her man don't know that it ain't the doughNo all he needs to spend is timeAnd that big marquis'd be a laser beamDon't love make a diamond shineDon't love make a diamond shineIt don't matter if it costs a dimeDang thing looks like a million bucksSittin' on the hand of a girl in loveA perfect fifteen caratIs duller than dirt if the heart don't wear itWith three little words it'll knock you blindDon't love make a diamond shine
