T For Texas |
| T for Texas, T for Tennessee |
| T for Texas, T for Tennessee |
| T for Thelma, that gal that made a wreck out of me |
| Oh-del-lay-ee oh, lay-ee eh, lay-ee |
| If you don’t want me mama, you sure don’t have to stall, oh Lord |
| If you don’t want me mama, you sure don’t have to stall |
| 'Cause I can get more women than a passenger train can haul |
| Oh-del-lay-ee oh, lay-ee eh, lay-ee |
| I’m gonna buy me a pistol just as long as I’m tall, Lord Lord |
| I’m gonna buy me a pistol just as long as I’m tall |
| I’m gonna shoot poor Thelma just to see her jump and fall |
| Oh-del-lay-ee eh, lay-ee oh, lay-ee |
| I’m goin' where the water drinks like cherry wine, sing 'em boy sing 'em |
| Lord I’m goin' where the water drinks like cherry wine |
| 'Cause this Georgia water tastes like turpentine |
| Oh-del-lay-ee eh, lay-ee oh, lay-ee |
| I’m gonna buy me a shotgun with a great long shiny barrel |
| Gonna buy me a shotgun with a great long shiny barrel |
| I’m gonna shoot that rounder that stole away my gal |
| Oh-del-lay-ee eh, lay-ee oh, lay-ee |
| Rather drink muddy water sleep in a holler log |
| Rather drink muddy water sleep in a holler log |
| Than to be in Atlanta treated like a dirty dog |
| Oh-del-lay-ee eh, lay-ee oh, lay-ee |
