Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds, I know You most of all

You've robbed my poor pockets

Of silver and gold

And Whiskey, you villain,

You've been my down-fall

You've cuffed and you've kicked me

But I loved you of old

Oh Whiskey, Rye Whiskey,

Whiskey I cried

If I don't get rye Whiskey

I surely will die

Well I go yonder mountain

And build me a still

And I send you a gallon

For a five dollar bill

Well it's beefcake when I'm hungry,

Whiskey when I'm dry

And it's greenbacks

When I'm hard off

And hell when I die

I said Whiskey, Rye Whiskey,

Whiskey I cried

If I don't get rye Whiskey

I surely will die

If the sea were made of Whiskey and I was a duck

I'd swim to the bottom and never come up

Oh, but the sea ain't made of Whiskey and I ain't a duck

So I play Jack Of Diamonds and trust on my luck

I said Whiskey, Rye Whiskey,

Whiskey I cried

If I don't get rye Whiskey

I surely will die

I said Whiskey, Rye Whiskey,

Whiskey I cried

If I don't get rye Whiskey

I surely will die

If I don't get rye Whiskey

I surely will die

This is such a classic tune. So many great variations. This is my favourite of them all.
