Version 1 of the lyrics

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