Jack O’Diamonds Songtext
von Blind Lemon Jefferson

Jack O′ Di, Jack O' Diamond
Jack O′ Diamond's a hard card to play
Jack O' Diamonds once in time
He did rob a friend of mine
Jack O′ Diamonds is a hard card to play

Bet the Jack against the Queen
It′s gonna turn your money green
Jack O' Diamonds is a hard card to play

Jack O′ Di, Jack O' Diamond
Jack O′ Diamond's a hard card to play

Bet the Jack again the Four
You′re gonna win right in the dough
Jack O' Diamonds is a hard card to play

Jack O' Diamonds made me cry
I expect to gamble until I die
Jack O′ Diamonds is a hard card to play

Jack O′ Di, Jack O' Diamond
Jack O′ Diamond's a hard card to play

Jack O′ Di, Jack O' Diamond
Jack O′ Diamond's a hard card to play
