Jack O’Diamonds Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
Jack O'Diamonds, oh Jack O'Diamonds
Hits the street, bumps his head
On the brow, he's a scout
You're born to lose, shouldn't stay
Jack O'Diamonds is a hard card to play

[Verse 2]
Jack O'Diamonds, yeah Jack O'Diamonds
This one-armed prince wears a single glove
Oh sure, he's not that lovely
Jack O'Diamonds break my hand
Left me here to stand
Jack O'Diamonds is a hard card to land

[Chorus]
Jack O'Diamonds is a hard card
Jack O'Diamonds is a high card
Jack O'Diamonds is a hard card
But it ain't hard enough
Jack O'Diamonds can open for riches
Jack O'Diamonds, but then it switches
Covered by a picture, but it's only a ten
Jack O'Diamonds

[Verse 3]
Yeah Jack O'Diamonds, Jack O'Diamonds
Hits the street, bumps his head
On the brow, he's a scout
You're born to lose, shouldn't stay
Jack O'Diamonds is a hard card to play
