Diamond Joe - Cisco Houston
Written by：Trad/ArrHouston
There is a man you'll hear about
Most every place you go
And his holdings are in texas
And his name is diamond joe
And he carries all his money
In his diamond studded jaw
And he never was much bothered
By the process of the law
Well I hired to diamond joe boys
I did offer him my hand
And he gave me a string of horses
So old they could not stand
Well I liked to die of hunger
'Cause he did mistreat me so
And I never earned one dollar
In the pay of diamond joe
Well his bread it was corn dodger
And his meat I could not chaw
And he drove me near distracted
With that waggin' of his jaw
While he tellin' of his story
And I mean to let you know
That there never was a rounder
That lied like diamond joe
Well I tried three times to quit him
Boys but he did argue so
That I still am punchin' cattle
In the pay of diamond joe
And when I'm called to heaven
Last thing before I go
Give my blankets to my buddies
And give the fleas to diamond joe
