From the recording Cross That River
Lyrics
Diamond Jimmy
Diamond Jimmy always loved to play the cards
Caught a white boy cheating
shot him through the heart
There's a law on the books
says a well bred Creole oughtn't
have done that
Diamod Jimmy hopped the stage to Abilene
worked the bar rooms
where the cowobys spend so free
He was fast with the cards
So he kept a six-gun loaded on his lap
Dancin' Annie she was known as Diamond's gal
Every Sunday all the cowboys road to town
Grabbed the working girls
and laid their money down
If you touch her Diamond send ya straight to hell
