She's a rich girl
Dia gadis kaya
She don't try to hide it
Dia tidak berusaha menyembunyikannya
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Berlian di telapak sepatunya
He's a poor boy
Dia anak malang
Empty as a pocket
Kosong seperti saku
Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose
Kosong seperti kantong dengan tidak ada ruginya
Sing Ta na na
Sing Ta na na
Ta na na na
Ta na na na
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Dia mendapat berlian di telapak sepatunya
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Dia mendapat berlian di telapak sepatunya
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Berlian di telapak sepatunya
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Berlian di telapak sepatunya
People say she's crazy
Orang bilang dia gila
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Dia mendapat berlian di telapak sepatunya
Well that's one way to lose these
Nah itu salah satu cara untuk kehilangan ini
Walking blues
Berjalan blues
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Berlian di telapak sepatunya
She was physically forgotten
Dia dilupakan secara fisik
Then she slipped into my pocket
Lalu ia menyelinap ke sakuku
With my car keys
Dengan kunci mobil saya
She said you've taken me for granted
Dia bilang kau sudah menganggapku begitu saja
Because I please you
Karena aku menyenangkan kamu
Wearing these diamonds
Mengenakan berlian ini
And I could say Oo oo oo
Dan aku bisa bilang Oo oo oo
As if everybody knows
Seakan semua orang tahu
What I'm talking about
Apa yang saya bicarakan
As if everybody would know
Seolah semua orang pasti tahu
Exactly what I was talking about
Persis apa yang saya bicarakan
Talking about diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Berbicara tentang berlian di telapak sepatunya
She makes the sign of a teaspoon
Dia membuat tanda satu sendok teh
He makes the sign of a wave
Dia membuat tanda gelombang
The poor boy changes clothes
Anak malang itu mengganti pakaian
And puts on after-shave
Dan teruskan setelah bercukur
To compensate for his ordinary shoes
Untuk mengimbangi sepatu biasa
And she said honey take me dancing
Dan dia bilang sayang mengajakku berdansa
But they ended up by sleeping
Tapi mereka akhirnya tidur
In a doorway
Di ambang pintu
By the bodegas and the lights on
Dengan bodegas dan lampu menyala
Upper Broadway
Broadway atas
Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes
Mengenakan berlian di telapak sepatu mereka
And I could say Oo oo oo
Dan aku bisa bilang Oo oo oo
As if everybody here would know
Seakan semua orang di sini tahu
What I was talking about
Apa yang saya bicarakan
I mean everybody here would know exactly
Maksudku semua orang di sini pasti tahu persisnya
What I was talking about
Apa yang saya bicarakan
Talking about diamonds
Berbicara tentang berlian
People say I'm crazy
Orang bilang aku gila
I got diamonds on the soles of my shoes
Aku mendapat berlian di telapak sepatuku
Well that's one way to lose
Nah itu salah satu cara untuk kalah
These walking blues
Blues berjalan ini
Diamonds on the soles of our shoes
Berlian di telapak sepatu kita
