Jack Of Diamonds (Rye Whiskey)
Traditional Cowboy Song
Recorded By Michael Martin Murphey



      Jack Of Diamonds (Rye Whiskey)

(3/4 Time)
            E
1.  Jack of diamonds, jack of diamonds

I've known you of old
                       E7
You've robbed my poor pockets
    A          E
of silver and gold

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
