[00:00.00]	Diamond Joe - Cisco Houston
[00:03.25]	Written by：Trad/ArrHouston
[00:06.51]	There is a man you'll hear about
[00:11.26]	Most every place you go
[00:17.52]	And his holdings are in texas
[00:24.07]	And his name is diamond joe
[00:26.80]	And he carries all his money
[00:30.42]	In his diamond studded jaw
[00:34.02]	And he never was much bothered
[00:37.87]	By the process of the law
[00:43.33]	Well I hired to diamond joe boys
[00:46.69]	I did offer him my hand
[00:51.21]	And he gave me a string of horses
[00:56.89]	So old they could not stand
[00:59.34]	Well I liked to die of hunger
[01:03.17]	'Cause he did mistreat me so
[01:06.75]	And I never earned one dollar
[01:10.16]	In the pay of diamond joe
[01:15.05]	Well his bread it was corn dodger
[01:18.46]	And his meat I could not chaw
[01:23.94]	And he drove me near distracted
[01:30.91]	With that waggin' of his jaw
[01:33.08]	While he tellin' of his story
[01:36.88]	And I mean to let you know
[01:40.29]	That there never was a rounder
[01:43.91]	That lied like diamond joe
[01:49.76]	Well I tried three times to quit him
[01:53.29]	Boys but he did argue so
[01:57.76]	That I still am punchin' cattle
[02:04.47]	In the pay of diamond joe
[02:06.81]	And when I'm called to heaven
[02:09.67]	Last thing before I go
[02:13.01]	Give my blankets to my buddies
[02:17.37]	And give the fleas to diamond joe
