GUEST,Les Lyr Req: Jack o' Diamonds (Lonnie Donegan) (26) RE: Lonnie Donegan - Jack O'Diamonds 04 Feb 04


Steve
Thanks for the quick response.
As I am new on this site, who is Roger the Skiffler?
I would assume somebody with a lot of knowledge on Lonnie.

This is the nearest I have got, but it is not exactly the same.

Had a girl she broke my heart,
lack of dough it made us part.
Jack of Diamonds it's a hard card to find.

She said, "Life is just a bet,
and I haven't won it yet."
Jack of Diamonds it's a hard card to find.

Hey, hey, Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds.
Diamonds it's a hard card to find.
Hey, hey, Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds.
Diamonds it's a hard card to find.

When you play that Diamond Jack
you will never once look back.
Jack of Diamonds it's a hard card to find.

They have luck and they have spells
but they haven't won their hells.
Jack of Diamonds it's a hard card to find.

Some say the Ace is high
but I know that it's a lie.
Jack of Diamonds it's a hard card to find.

The Queen is way above
cause the highest thing is love.
Jack of Diamonds it's a hard card to find.

Cheers
Les
