Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes - Live at Webster Hall, New York City - June 2011

She's a rich girl
And she don't try to hide it
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

He's a poor boy
Empty as a pocket
He's empty as a pocket with nothin' to lose

Sing ta-na-na
(Ta-na-na)
Ta-na-na
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

Ta-na-na
(Ta-na-na)
Ta-na-na
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes, that's right
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes (this's right)
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Once more, she got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

People say, "She's crazy
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes" (yeah)
Well, that's one way to lose these walkin' blues
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

She was physically forgotten
But then she slipped into my pocket with my car keys
She said, "You've taken me for granted because I please you
Wearin' these diamonds"

I could say ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
As if everybody know what I'm talkin' about
As if everybody else would know what I am talkin' about
Talk about diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Diamond, diamond

She makes the sign of a teaspoon
He makes the sign of a wave
Yeah, the poor boy changes clothes and puts on after-shave
To compensate for his ordinary shoes
To compensate for his ordinary shoes

And she said

She said, "Honey, take me dancin'"
But they ended up by sleepin' in a doorway
By the bodegas and the lights on Upper Broadway
Wearin' diamonds on the soles of their shoes

And I could say ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
And if everybody else would know what I was talkin' about
I mean everybody else know just what I am talkin' about
Talk about diamonds on the soles of their shoes
Diamonds on the soles of their shoes
Diamonds on the soles of their shoes

People say I'm crazy
I got diamonds on the soles of my shoes, yeah
Well, that's one way to lose these walkin' blues
Diamonds on the soles of your shoes
