Diamond On The Soles Of Her Shoes (alternate Version) Lyrics - Graceland (25th Anniversary Edition Cd) - Paul Simon

(a-wa) O kodwa u zo-nge li-sa namhlange 

(a-wa a-wa) Si-bona kwenze ka kanjani 

(a-wa a-wa) Amanto mbazane ayeza 

She's a rich girl 

She don't try to hide it 

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

He's a poor boy 

Empty as a pocket 

Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose 

Sing ta na na 

(Ta na na) 

Ta na na na 

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

Ta na na 

(Ta na na) 

Ta na na na 

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes (Rich girl) 

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

People say she's crazy 

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

Well, that's one way to lose these walking blues 

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

She was physically forgotten 

But then she slipped into my pocket with my car keys 

She said, "You've taken me for granted because I please you 

Wearing these diamonds" 

And I could say Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo 

As if everybody knows what I'm talking about 

As if everybody here would know exactly what I was talking about 

Talking about diamonds on the soles of her shoes 

Ooh-ooh 

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh 

She makes the sign of a teaspoon, he makes the sign of a wave 

The poor boy changes clothes, and he puts on aftershave 

To compensate for his ordinary shoes 

Photos 

And she said, "Honey, take me dancing" 

But they ended up by sleeping in a doorway 

By the bodegas and the lights on upper Broadway 

Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes 

And I could say Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo 

And everybody here would know what I was talking about 

I mean, everybody here would know exactly what I was talking about 

I'm talking about diamonds 

Ooh-ooh 

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh 

People say I'm crazy, I got diamonds on the soles of my shoes, yeah 

Well, that's one way to lose these walking blues 

Diamonds on the soles of our shoes
