She's a rich girl she don't try to hide it
E
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

He's a poor boy empty as a pocket

Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose
A E
Sing Ta-na-na Ta-na-na-na
B E
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes a-wa-a-wa
A E
Ta-na-naa Ta-na-naa-na

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes a-wa-a-wa

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes a-wa-a-wa

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes a-wa-a-wa

Wearing diamonds on the soles of her shoes
