Blue diamonds, big blue diamonds on her finger
Instead of a little band of gold
Big diamonds, big blue diamonds tell the story
Of the love that no one man could hold

Oh, she wanted more than I had money to buy
So she left me sad and lonely I am told
Big diamonds, big blue diamonds
Now she´ll trade them
For a love behind a little band of gold

Blue diamonds, big blue diamonds how they sparkle
But what can they do to warm your heart and soul
When you´re lonesome in the moonlight and you want loving
Big blue diamonds don´t they seem so reckless and bold

I gladly do my part oh, to mend a broken heart
But a love that´s warmed over soon grows cold
Big diamonds, big blue diamonds
I don´t want them, no
