《Diamond Joe》歌词

[00:00:00] Diamond Joe - Ramblin' Jack Elliott

[00:00:10] Now there's a man you'll hear about

[00:00:16] Most anywhere you go

[00:00:18] And his holdings are in texas

[00:00:24] And his name is Diamond Joe

[00:00:28] And he carries all his money

[00:00:33] In a diamond studded jar

[00:00:40] He never took much trouble

[00:00:44] With the process of the law

[00:00:52] I hired out to Diamond Joe boys

[00:00:56] Did offer him in my hand

[00:00:58] He gave me a string of horses

[00:01:02] So old they could not stand

[00:01:07] And I nearly starved to death boys

[00:01:12] He did mistreat me so

[00:01:18] And I never saved a dollar

[00:01:22] In the pay of Diamond Joe

[00:01:38] Now his bread it was corn dodger

[00:01:40] And his meat you couldn't chaw

[00:01:42] Nearly drove me crazy

[00:01:46] With the waggin' of his jaw

[00:01:48] And the tellin' of his story

[00:01:53] Mean to let you know

[00:02:00] That there never was a rounder

[00:02:04] That could lie like Diamond Joe

[00:02:12] Now I tried three times to quit him

[00:02:16] But he did argue so

[00:02:18] I'm still punchin' cattle

[00:02:23] In the pay of Diamond Joe

[00:02:27] And when I'm called up yonder

[00:02:31] And it's my time to go

[00:02:37] Give my blankets to my buddies

[00:02:45] Give the fleas to Diamond Joe
