Jack O'diamonds

Well I played him end of spring
 And he never won a thing
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 Well I played him end of fall
 And he never won at all
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 I fell down on my knees
 Tried to play Jack of Spades
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 Well I played him 'gainst the ace
 He was a starvation in my face
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 Well I played him 'gainst the deuce
 Pulled a jack when it weren't no use
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 Well I played him 'gainst the tre
 It was on? t a fiver lay?
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 And I played the jack 'gainst the four
 Turned the jack's red indigo
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 I played him 'gainst the five
 That Abe Lincoln made me cry
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 And I played him 'gainst the six
 It left me in a terrible fix
 Jack of Diamonds was a hard card to play
 And I told you last week
 Just as plain as a man could speak
 I'm gonna send you to your proper pay day
 And I played the jack 'gainst the king
 And it made the deal sing
 Jack of diamonds was a hard card to play
 And I played it 'gainst the queen
 And it turned my money green
 Jack of diamonds was a hard card to play
