Diamond Horseshoe

a 1922 popular song
words and music by Irving Berlin


The sheet music:


Accompaniment:


Lyrics

Metropolitan nights bring to me memories dear
Voices clear keep ringing in my ear
Metropolitan girls with their sweet musical themes
Haunt my dreams and every night it seems

Chorus
I see a horseshoe set with diamonds, a diamond horseshoe set with girls
And every lovely maiden I see is calling to me with a sweet melody
I hear them saying it with music, until each tragic tale unfurls
And my heart is laden with love for each maiden
In my diamond horseshoe of girls
