Diamond Joe (钻石乔) - Cisco Houston/Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

There is a man you'll hear about[00:00:06]

Most every place you go [00:00:10]

And his holdings are in Texas[00:00:17]

And his name is Diamond Joe [00:00:23]

And he carries all his money[00:00:26]

In his diamond studded jaw [00:00:29]

And he never was much bothered[00:00:33]

By the process of the law [00:00:37]

Well I hired to Diamond Joe boys [00:00:42]

I did offer him my hand [00:00:46]

And he gave me a string of horses[00:00:50]

So old they could not stand [00:00:56]

Well I liked to die of hunger[00:00:58]

'Cause he did mistreat me so [00:01:02]

And I never earned one dollar[00:01:05]

In the pay of Diamond Joe [00:01:09]

Well his bread it was corn dodger[00:01:14]

And his meat I could not chaw [00:01:17]

And he drove me near distracted[00:01:22]

With that waggin' of his jaw [00:01:29]

While he tellin' of his story [00:01:32]

And I mean to let you know [00:01:35]

That there never was a rounder[00:01:39]

That lied like Diamond Joe [00:01:42]

Well I tried three times to quit him [00:01:48]

Boys but he did argue so[00:01:52]

That I still am punchin' cattle[00:01:56]

In the pay of Diamond Joe [00:02:03]

And when I'm called to heaven[00:02:05]

Last thing before I go [00:02:08]

Give my blankets to my buddies[00:02:11]

And give the fleas to Diamond Joe[00:02:16]
