Diamond joe was a rich old jay

Had lots of cowboys in his pay

Rode the range with his cowboy band

Many a mav'rick got his brand

Well I hired out offer joe my hand

Got a string of horses so old they could not stand

Like I died from hunger he was treated as so

Never earned a dollar off of diamond joe

Roll on boys roll don't you roll so slow

Roll on boys roll don't you roll so slow

Ki yippy yay yippy kiai ey

Roll on boys roll don't you roll so slow

Roll on boys roll don't you roll so slow

Ki yippy yay yippy kiai ey oo

just a cowboy ain't got no home

Got no folks so I'm bound to roam

I work for the elves or the old bar o

Won't burn no brand for diamond joe

Well if I was rich like diamond joe

I'd work today I'd work no more

He works me hard and pays so slow

Don't give a damn if I work or no

Roll on boys roll don't you roll so slow

Roll on boys roll don't you roll so slow

Ki yippy yay yippy kiai ey oo

Ki yippy yay yippy kiai ey oo
