Some girls are fair, some are jolly and fit
Some have a well-bred air or a well-honed wit
Each one′s a jewel with a singular shineA work of art with its own rare design
Dear little girl, you are terribly blessed
But it's your heart of gold I love the best
And that will be your crowning glory
Your whole life through
It′ll always be your crowning glory
The most glorious part of you
Some boys can waltz (some guys can groove)
Strike an elegant pose (wear the really hip clothes)
Some seem to have no faults (but we never like those)
No we don't!
He'll praise your eyes (your melodious laugh, ha ha!)
Call you more lovely than others by half
The one who′s right (my gorgeous prince)
Will be honest and true (he′ll believe in me too)
And prize your heart of gold the way I do
He'll know that that will be your crowning glory
Your whole life through
Your love will see that it′s your crowning glory
The most glorious part of you
And you, and you, and you
That will be your crowning glory
Darling, when they tell your story
They'll call your heart of gold your crowning glory
The most glorious part of you
