She's a rich girl
She dont try to hide it
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
He's a poor boy
Empty as a pocket

Sing ta na na

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
People say she's crazy

Well thats one way to lose these
Walking blues
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
She was physically forgotten
Then she slipped into my pocket
With my car keys
She said youve taken me for granted

Wearing these diamonds
And I could say oo oo oo
As if everybody knows
What I'm talking about
As if everybody would know
Exactly what I was talking about
Talking about diamonds on the soles of her shoes

She makes the sign of a teaspoon
He makes the sign of a wave
The poor boy changes clothes
And puts on after-shave
To compensate for his ordinary shoes
And she said honey take me dancing
But they ended up by sleeping

By the bodegas and the lights on
Upper broadway
Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes
And I could say oo oo oo
As if everybody here would know
What I was talking about
I mean everybody here would know exactly

Talking about diamonds
People say I'm crazy
I got diamonds on the soles of my shoes
Well that's one way to lose
These walking blues
Diamonds on the soles of your shoes

Grace, Providence ... what on earth do these words mean? Who knows what they mean? When you got the diamonds and when you ain't? Walkin' around, full of holes; horizon full of holes too. Pig lifts up his head from the trough for a sec, swill drippin' off his chin, and all of a sudden it is a mirror and he is you, you are him.
Jews walkin' into the ovens of Graceland; Necdet Kent steppin' on board the boxcar to Graceland, later on sayin', "What I have done is what I should have done. I knew I had to act." Dietrich Bonhoeffer hangin' in Graceland. Roméo Dallaire stumblin' in there, Simon Charlie curled up in there last time I saw him, Martin Luther King on the streets of Selma ... my friend Ed pushin' a shopping cart up and down the hills of old St. John's; up and down the streets and hills of Graceland; yeah.
