Where are you hidin'?

If you don’t come right here

Goin' tell your paw on you

There ain’t no hammer

On-a this mountain

That can ring like mine, boy

That ring like mine

I’m gonna whop this rock, boy

From here to the Macon

All the way to the jail, boy

Little Jack of Diamonds

Jack of Diamonds

Know you of old, boy

I know you of old

You done robbed my pockets

Robbed my pockets

Silver and gold, boy

Of silver and gold
