Diamond Joe

[Intro] Diamond Joe, come get me Diamond Joe, come get me Diamond Joe, hey, find me Diamond Joe [Verse 1] When I got up this morning Before the rising sun I thought I heard him call my name But I saw no one There's some up in those buildings And some out on the farm Some have gone to the graveyard And some are heading home [Chorus] Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe [Verse 2] The minutes feel like hours The hours feel like days And sometimes the dog will stay at home But sometimes he'll run away If I don't go crazy I'm bound to lose my mind I can't see nothing breaking, boys Nothing but a long sight line [Chorus] Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Well, I don't come from the city I ain't gonna work on this farm Seems like every place I go Wants to do me some harm So go tell Aunt Mary And my Uncle Jones Every time that you see me cryin' That's my train fare home [Chorus] Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Come and get me, Diamond Joe Hey, come and get me, Diamond Joe
