Intro:
E1.E ZCwrCotCkaC D D D D D
ENow There's a man you'll hear about
CMost anywhere you go,
DAnd his holdings are in Texas
And his name is DEiamond Joe.

2. Zwrotka
EAnd he carries all his money
CIn a diamond-studded jar.
DHe never took much trouble
With the process of tEhe law.

3. Zwrotka
EI hired out to Diamond Joe, boys,
CDid offer him my hand,
DHe gave a string of horses
So old they could nEot stand.

4. Zwrotka
EAnd I nearly starved to death, boys,
CHe did mistreat me so,
DAnd I never saved a dollar
In the pay of DiaEmond Joe.

5. Zwrotka
ENow his bread it was corn dodger
CAnd his meat you couldn't chaw,
DNearly drove me crazy
With the waggin' of hEis jaw.

6. Zwrotka
EAnd the tellin' of his story,
CMean to let you know
DThat there never was a rounder
That could lie like DiaEmond Joe.

Instrumental

7. Zwrotka
ENow, I tried three times to quit him,
CBut he did argue so
DI'm still punchin' cattle
In the pay of DiaEmond Joe

8. Zwrotka
EAnd when I'm called up yonder
CAnd it's my time to go,
DGive my blankets to my buddies
Give the fleas to DEiamond Joe.
