Where Diamonds Grow

I'm attracted to the city
Men most suited, sexy booted
Walking down oh, Liverpool Street
I'd be seein' market mountains
Cash begin-a to rip a bigger
Hole inside the American dream
Gimme dollar, gimme dollar
Queen 'Lizabeth stole my dough
Give me heads and give me tails
Give me yen and give me gold
Give me diamonds and gold
Give me diamonds and gold
The dollar book and cash gold
Dollar book and cash gold
We want diamonds and dough, dough, dough, ooh
Give me the money
Give me the money, oh
'Cause this is where the diamonds grow
Give me the money
Give me the money, oh!
So that a jewel can be sold
Yeah (yeah), sold
I'd be dreamin' of Laguza
Swimmin' cruiser, liquid jewels 'cause
I'm a sucker for things that be gleamin', yeah
Beware of women who come runnin'
They see bling-bling, they think touchy
Family jewels from fools need protecting
They say: We want dollar, give me dollar
Give me queens and give me dough
We give head if you give tail 'cause
We need yen and we need gold
We want diamonds and gold
Give me diamonds and gold
The dollar book and cash gold
Dollar book and cash gold
We want diamonds and dough, ooh
Give me the money
Give me the money, oh
'Cause this is where the diamonds grow
Give me the money
Give me the money, oh
So that a jewel can be sold
Give me the money
Give me the money, oh
'Cause this is where the diamonds grow
Forget the Midas
I've got the diamond touch
Diamonds are worth more than gold
Yeah (yeah), ohh-ohh-ohhh
(Yeah) yeah, ohh-ohh-ohhh
You'd be kidding yourself
If you said that you didn't want it
And I'd be kidding myself
If I said I didn't think I'd be rich, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah (yeah)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah
