Lyrics
[verse]
Boys keep sending flowers
Boys keep sending notes
Talking 'bout forever
While they're reaching for my coat
I've seen love turn to nothing
When the money disappears
So I'm keeping my eyes open
Through the compliments and cheers
[chorus]
I'm a diamond kind of lady
Not impressed by pretty words
Show me something worth the trouble
Or your chances are absurd
'Cause a girl's gotta be careful
In a world that's cold as gold
Only real ones get the treasure
Everybody else gets told
[verse]
Some will promise mountains
Some will promise moons
But I want the one who's steady
Not the one who's chasing tunes
Give me loyalty and patience
More than diamonds, more than cash
'Cause the shiniest of offers
Can still turn to broken glass
[chorus]
I'm a diamond kind of lady
Not impressed by pretty words
Show me something worth the trouble
Or your chances are absurd
'Cause a girl's gotta be careful
In a world that's cold as gold
Only real ones get the treasure
Everybody else gets told
[bridge]
Don't call me hard for wanting more than talk
Don't call me cold for making my own walk
I earned my armor, I know how to choose
It's not the money, it's the love I won't lose
[chorus]
I'm a diamond kind of lady
Not impressed by pretty words
Show me something worth the trouble
Or your chances are absurd
'Cause a girl's gotta be careful
In a world that's cold as gold
Only real ones get the treasure
Everybody else gets told
