T For Texas

(jimmy rodgers)



Give me a t for texas, give me a t for tennessee

Give me a t for texas, give me a t for tennessee

Give me a t for thelma, woman made a fool out of me



If you don't want me baby, mama you sure don't got to stall

If you don't want me baby, mama you sure don't got to stall

I've had more pretty women than a passenger train could haul



I'm gonna buy myself a shotgun, one with a long shiny barrel

I'm gonna buy myself a shotgun, one with a long shiny barrel

I'm gonna shoot me a rounder oh that stole away my gal



I'd rather drink your muddy water, sleep down in a hollow log

I'd rather drink your muddy water, sleep down in a hollow log

Than to be in atlanta, georgia, treat me like a dirty dog

(i don't have to go for that)



If you don't want me baby, mama you sure don't got to stall

If you don't want me baby, mama you sure don't got to stall

'cause i've had more pretty women than a passenger train could haul

And that ain't all



I'd rather drink your muddy water, sleep down in a hollow log

I'd rather drink your muddy water, sleep down in a hollow log

Than to be in atlanta, georgia, treated like a dirty dog



Oh give me a t for texas, give me a t for tennessee

Give me a t for thelma, woman made a fool out of me

Give me a t for texas, give me that t for tennessee

Give me a t for thelma, woman made a fool out of me

One more time



Give me a t for thelma, oh that woman made a fool...

I said said oh, that woman made a fool

Out of me, yeah
