[Intro]
G D/F# Em C G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                                  D/F# Em
Now there's a man you'll hear about
     C              G
Most everywhere you go,
                         Em
And his holdings are in Texas
         C              G
And his name is Diamond Joe.
 
 
G                               D/F# Em
And he carried all of his money
      C               G
In a diamond-studded jar.
                              Em
And he never was much bothered
         C              G
With the process of the law.
 
 
[Verse 2] G D/F# Em I hired out to Diamond Joe, boys, C G I did offer him my hand, Em And he gave a string of horses C G So old they could not stand. G D/F# Em And I nearly starved to death, boys, C G He did mistreat me so, Em And I never saved a dollar C G In the pay of Diamond Joe. [Verse 3] G D/F# Em Now his bread it was corn dodger C G And his meat I could not chaw, Em And he drove me near distracted C G With the waggin' of his jaw. G D/F# Em And the tellin' of his stories, C G I mean to let you know Em That there never was a rounder C G That could lie like Diamond Joe. [Verse 4] G D/F# Em Now, I tried three times to quit him, boys, C G But he did argue so Em I'm still punchin' cattle C G In the pay of Diamond Joe G D/F# Em And when I'm called up yonder C G And it's my time to go, Em Give my blankets to my buddies C G Give the fleas to Diamond Joe. [Outro] Em Give my blankets to my buddies C G Give the fleas to Diamond Joe.
