Lyrics
Dirty Diamonds
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It looked so good, your perfect plan
You had to get greedy to be the man
Now you're holding the bag, paying the price
Gonna get burned by the heat of the ice
Dirty diamonds
You rolled the dice, you bet your life
You put your trust in your trophy wife
Got stabbed in the back in the blink of an eye
She's in bed with the boys and the fbi
Dirty diamonds
Blood soaked money in your shakin' fist
Dirty diamonds
Stone cold killers and you're on their list
Ah, ah oh yeah
You're tied to a chair witha gun at your head
Your face is all smeared with the blood that's been shed
You were gonna be rich
Now you're gonna be dead
And all that glitters turns to lead
Dirty diamonds
Blood soaked money in your shakin' fist
Dirty diamonds
Stone cold killers and you're on their list
Dirty diamonds
Blood soaked money in your shakin' fist
Dirty diamonds
Stone cold killers and you're on their list
Dirty diamonds
Diamonds don't cheat
Diamonds don't lie
Diamonds are forever
Diamonds never die
Dirty diamonds
Blood soaked money in your shakin' fist
Dirty diamonds
Stone cold killers and you're on their list
Dirty diamonds
Blood soaked money in your shakin' fist
Dirty diamonds
Stone cold killers and you're on their list
Run for your life, you can't hide
Can't you hear 'em coming
You're gonna die
You better run for your life, you can't hide
Can't you hear 'em coming
You're gonna die
You better run for your life, you can't hide
Can't you hear 'em coming
You're gonna die
You better run for your life, you can't hide
Can't you hear 'em coming
