on the move hits the street
bumps his head on the ground
well he’s a scout you’re born to lose

this oneeyed prince wears a single love
oh sure he’s not that lovely

left me here to stand

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
colour by picture but it’s only a ten
