Big Blue Diamonds - Tex Ritter

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds on her finger

Instead of a little band of gold

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds tell the story

Of the love that no man could hold

She wanted more than I had money to buy

So she left me then got lonesome, I’m told

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds

Now she’ll trade them

For a love behind a little band of gold

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds how they sparkle

But what can they do to warm your soul?

When you’re lonesome in the moonlight, you want lovin'

Big blue diamonds aren’t so heartless and cold

I’d gladly do my part to mend a broken heart

But love that’s warmed-over soon grows cold

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds

I don’t want them

I just want a love behind a little band of gold
