Diamond Joe - Guy Clark[00:00:00]

Now there's a man you'll hear about[00:00:28]

Most anywhere you go[00:00:32]

And his holdings are in Texas[00:00:36]

And his name is Diamond Joe[00:00:39]

And he carries all his money[00:00:42]

In a diamond studded jar[00:00:46]

He never took much trouble[00:00:48]

With the process of the law[00:00:50]

I hired out to Diamond Joe boys[00:00:55]

Did offer him my hand[00:00:58]

He gave a string of horses[00:01:00]

So old they could not stand[00:01:04]

And I nearly starved to death boys[00:01:06]

He did mistreat me so[00:01:09]

And I never saved a dollar[00:01:12]

In the pay of Diamond Joe[00:01:16]

Now his bread it was corn dodger[00:01:42]

And his meat you couldn't chaw[00:01:45]

Nearly drove me crazy[00:01:48]

With the waggin' of his jaw[00:01:52]

And the tellin' of his story[00:01:55]

Mean to let you know[00:01:59]

That there never was a rounder[00:02:02]

That could lie like Diamond Joe[00:02:07]

Now I tried three times to quit him[00:02:09]

But he did argue so[00:02:14]

I'm still punchin' cattle[00:02:18]

In the pay of Diamond Joe[00:02:22]

And when I'm called up yonder[00:02:26]

And it's my time to go[00:02:30]

Give my blankets to my buddies[00:02:34]

Give the fleas to Diamond Joe[00:02:39]
