Georgie Fame
Rough Cut Diamond
A dollar is a dollar
A dime's a dime
I got the money
But I ain’t got time
Get yourself together
Get your life in gear
You got to give me some attention
Or else I'm out of here
You used to dance to the same old song
Be in the Honky Tonk all night long
Your head in the clouds
Soaking up the atmosphere
You got to give me some attention
Or else I'm out of here
Keep on dreamin’, baby
Dream your dreams
And you'll lose me in the end
I'm just a rough cut diamond
But everybody says
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Don't go 'round here
Callin' me a liar
I ain't tryin’ to
Set the world on fire
I need a little lovin’
I wanna make it clear
You got to give me some attention
Or else I'm out of here
Keep on dreamin’, baby
Dream your dreams
And you'll lose me in the end
I'm just a rough cut diamond
But everybody says
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Let’s get together
Just one more time
We're birds of a feather
And you blow my mind
I'm telling you now
You really got to persevere
You got to give me some attention
Or else I'm out of here
Keep on dreamin', baby
Dream your dreams
And you'll lose me in the end
I'm just a rough cut diamond
But everybody says
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Keep on dreamin', baby
Dream your dreams
And you'll lose me in the end
I'm just a rough cut diamond
But everybody says
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
