| 1. Now There's a man you'll hear about | |
| Most anywhere you go, | |
| And his holdings are in Texas | |
| And his name is Diamond Joe. | |
| 2. And he carries all his money | |
| In a diamond-studded jar. | |
| He never took much trouble | |
| With the process of the law. | |
| 3. I hired out to Diamond Joe, boys, | |
| Did offer him my hand, | |
| He gave a string of horses | |
| So old they could not stand. | |
| 4. And I nearly starved to death, boys, | |
| He did mistreat me so, | |
| And I never saved a dollar | |
| In the pay of Diamond Joe. | |
| 5. Now his bread it was corn dodger | |
| And his meat you couldn't chaw, | |
| Nearly drove me crazy | |
| With the waggin' of his jaw. | |
| 6. And the tellin' of his story, | |
| Mean to let you know | |
| That there never was a rounder | |
| That could lie like Diamond Joe. | |
| Instrumental | |
| 7. Now, I tried three times to quit him, | |
| But he did argue so | |
| I'm still punchin' cattle | |
| In the pay of Diamond Joe. | |
| 8. And when I'm called up yonder | |
| And it's my time to go, | |
| Give my blankets to my buddies | |
| Give the fleas to Diamond Joe. |
