Leon Redbone - Diamonds Don't Mean a Thing lyrics

Diamonds, don't mean a thing, if the lovin' touch ain't there Rubies, rubies on a ring, you can find them anywhere Heartbreak, it happens every day, why am I so blue? I've got this heartache, no matter what I do Diamonds, don't mean a thing, when you're sleepin' all alone Parties, never seem to swing, if that special thrill is gone Palm trees, wavin' in the breeze, get boring too That's my life story, oh sad but true Diamonds, don't mean a thing, if the lovin' touch ain't there Rubies, rubies on a ring, you can find them anywhere Heartbreak, it happens every day, why am I so blue? I've got this heartache, no matter what I do
