I'm gonna buy me a sack of flour
Cook a hoecake every hour,
Diamond Joe better come get me, Diamond Joe.
I'm gonna buy me a piece of meat,
Cook me a slice but once a week,
Diamond Joe you better come get me, Diamond Joe.
I'm gonna buy me a sack of meal,
Take a hoecake to the field,
Diamond Joe come and get me, Diamond Joe.
I'm gonna buy me a jug of whiskey,
I'm gonna make my baby frisky,
Diamond Joe better come get me, Diamond Joe.
I'm gonna buy me a jug of rum,
I'm gonna give my Ida some,
Diamond Joe you better come get me, Diamond Joe.
