C#AEA tuning I���ve
played cards in England
I���ve gambled in Spain
Goin back toRhode Island
Gonna play my last game.
I’ll tune up thefiddle I’ll
rosinthe bow Make
myself welcome
Wherever I go.
Jack of diamonds, jack of diamonds
I���ve known you from old
You���ve robbed my poor
pockets Of silver and gold
Corn whiskey and women,
They’ve been my downfall.
Beat me and they bang me,
but I love them for all.
My shoes is all tore up,
My toes’re stickin’ out,
Don’t get Corn whiskey,
I’m goin’ up the spot.
Gonna beat on the counter,
Or I’ll make the glass ring,
More brandy, more brandy
More brandy to bring
Gonna eat when I���m
hungry Gonna drink when
I���m dry Get to feelin
much better Gonna sprout
wings and fly.
Gonna drink, gonna gamble
My money’s my own. Them
that don���t like me Can
leave me alone.
