  • Everybody knows
    The thing she does to please
    Low cut sweaters
    With her skirts above her knees
    She's a dime store diamond
    Everybody knows
    Just where she gets her clothes
    A watercolor painting
    In a Renoir pose

    She's a dime store diamond
    Dime store diamond
    Eh, eh, eh

    Everybody knows
    But no one can tell
    Homemade haircut
    But she wears it well
    She's a dime store diamond
    You can call her broke
    You can call her poor
    But everybody knows that
    She ain't coal no more

    She's a dime store diamond
    Dime store diamond
    Shine one
    Shines like the real thing, real thing, real thing
    Dime store diamond

    Gotta catch ya one
    Gotta catch ya one
    One, go an' getcha one
    Gotta catch ya one
    Gotta catch ya one
    One, go an' getcha one

    Everybody knows
    The thing she does to please
    Low cut sweaters
    With her skirts above her knees

    She's a dime store diamond
    Dime store diamond
    Shine two
    Shines like the real thing, real thing, real thing
    Dime store diamond
    Dime store

    Shine three
    Shines like the real thing, real thing, real thing
    Dime store diamond
    Dime store diamond
    Dime store diamond
