Jack Of Diamonds (Rye Whiskey)
Traditional Cowboy Song
Recorded By Michael Martin Murphey
Jack Of Diamonds (Rye Whiskey)
(3/4 Time)
1. Jack of [E]diamonds, jack of diamonds
I've known you of old
You've robbed my poor p[E7]ockets
of s[A]ilver and g[E]old
2. Beafsteak when I'm hungry
Rye whiskey when I'm dry
Greenbacks when I'm hard up
And heaven when I die
3. Rye whiskey, rye whiskey
Rye whiskey I cry
If I don't get rye whiskey
I surely will die
4. Jack of diamonds, jack of diamonds
I've known you of old
You've robbed my poor pockets
of silver and gold
