Jack O’ Diamonds Lyrics

[Chorus]
Put your jack on your queen
It's gonna turn your money green
Yeah, put your jack over your queen
Baby, that's a hard card to play

Now put your jack on your queen
Oh, it'll turn your money green
Yeah, put your jack over your queen
Baby, that's a hard card to play

[Verse]
Well now I gambled over in England
Yes, I've gambled over in Spain
Well now I'm going back down into Georgia
I'm gonna gamble my last game
I'm gonna gamble-a my last game
I'm gonna gamble my last game
Yes, I'm headin' back down into Georgia
I'm gonna gamble my last game

[Chorus]
Now put your jack on your queen
Say, that'll turn your money green
Yeah, put your jack over your queen
Baby, that's a hard card to play

[Verse]
Well now I gambled over and over
Yes, I've gambled all around
If'n you walk up to me with a deck of cards
You know I'd lay my money down
I'm here to tell you that I'd lay my money down
Ooh, I'd lay my money round down
If'n you walk up to me with a deck of cards
I'd lay my money down

[Chorus]
Yeah, put your jack, Jean, on your queen, Jean
Whoa, it'll turn your money stone green, Jean
Yeah, put your jack over your queen
Baby, that's a hard card to play

[Verse]
Well now I had me a real fine woman
Yeah, wanna tell you that I loved her so
But she tried to stop my gamblin'
Right then I had to let her go
Yeah, don't ya know that I had to let a good girl go
Mmmm, I had to let her go
When she tried to stop my ramblin' and gamblin'
I had to let her go

[Chorus]
Yeah, put your jack, Jean, on your queen, Jean
Whoa, it'll turn your money stone green, Jean
Yeah, put your jack over your queen
Baby, that's a hard card to play
