Verse

  I used to think she was the greatest thing

  I really cared gave her a diamond ring

  She said she'd rather die than ever leave me

  Well, I never saw her face since then

  And if the law don't get her then I will

  Four little diamonds

Verse

She must be somewhere on the open road

She always said she was the lonely one

She gets you down with her tales of woe

She took me for everything

And if the law don't get her then I will

Four little diamonds

  Four little diamonds

Chorus

  I looked around I climbed up high into the dawn

  But she was gone with the night

  I thought about the things she said

And all the things we'd done

  But where could she run - she ran away

  There's just no answer to give

Verse

I keep wondering about her day and night

She probably thinks I was a fool - she's right

She don't know it but I'm gonna keep on searching for that woman

I'm gonna search everywhere

And if the law don't get her then I will

Four little diamonds

Four little diamonds

Chorus

I looked around I climbed up high into the dawn

But she was gone with the night

I thought about the things she said

And all the things we'd done

But where could she run - she ran away

There's just no answer to give

Verse

I still hear her calling out to me

I still listen for her endlessly

But it never even crossed my mind she was a cheater

I gotta find where she hides

'Cause if the law don't get her then I will

Four little diamonds

Four little diamonds

Four little diamonds

Four little diamonds
