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

And he carries all his money

In a diamond studded jar

He never took much trouble

With the process of the law

I hired out to Diamond Joe boys

Did offer him my hand

He gave a string of horses

So old they could not stand

And I nearly starved to death boys

He did mistreat me so

And I never saved a dollar

In the pay of Diamond Joe

Now his bread it was corn dodger

And his meat you couldn't chaw

Nearly drove me crazy

With the wagging of his jaw

And the telling of his story

Mean to let you know

That there never was a rounder

That could lie like Diamond Joe

Now I tried three times to quit him

But he did argue so

I'm still punching cattle

In the pay of Diamond Joe

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
