G Em
Now there's a man you'll hear about
C G C/G G
Most anywhere you go,
G Em
And his holdings are in Texas
C G
And his name is Diamond Joe.
G Em
And he carries all his money
C G
In a diamond-studded jar.
G Em
He never took much trouble
C G
With the process of the law.
G Em
I hired out to Diamond Joe, boys,
C G C/G G
Did offer him my hand,
G Em
He gave a string of horses
C G
So old they could not stand.
G F# C G
And I nearly starved to death, boys,
C G C/G G
He did mistreat me so,
G F# Em C
And I never saved a dollar
G
In the pay of Diamond Joe.
G Em
Now his bread it was corn dodger
C G
And his meat you couldn't chaw,
G F# Em
Nearly drove me crazy
C G
With the waggin' of his jaw.
G F# C G
And the tellin' of his story,
C G C/G G
Mean to let you know
G F# Em B
That there never was a rounder
C G
That could lie like Diamond Joe.
G Em
Now, I tried three times to quit him,
C G
But he did argue so
G F# C G
I'm still punchin' cattle
C G
In the pay of Diamond Joe.
G F# C G
And when I'm called up yonder
C G
And it's my time to go,
G Em
Give my blankets to my buddies
C G
Give the fleas to Diamond Joe.
