Tommy and janey hardly eighteen
Holdin hands at the jewelry store
Eyes open wide starin inside
At the ring that they wanted for her
Mister bring it closer mister can we hold it
I think its gonna fit just fine
As he slipped it on her hand janey kissed her man
Dont love make a diamond shine

Dont love make a diamond shine
It dont matter if it costs a dime
Dang thing looks like a million bucks
Sittin on the hand of a girl in love
A perfect fifteen carat is duller than dirt if the heart dont wear it
With three little words itll knock you blind
Dont love make a diamond shine

Theres a rich lady with a new mercedes
Livin up in a high rise
She got a big ol rock on her left hand
That looks cheaper than a cracker jack prize
cause her man dont know that it aint the dough
You know all he needs to spend is time
And that big marquisd be a laser beam
Dont love make a diamond shine

Dont love make a diamond shine
It dont matter if it costs a dime
Dang thing looks like a million bucks
Sittin on the hand of a girl in love
A perfect fifteen carat is duller than dirt if the heart dont wear it
With three little words itll knock you blind
Dont love make a diamond shine

Dont love make a diamond shine
It dont matter if it costs a dime
Dang thing looks like a million bucks
Sittin on the hand of a girl in love
A perfect fifteen carat is duller than dirt if the heart dont wear it
With three little words itll knock you blind
Dont love make a diamond shine
Dont love make a diamond shine
