Lyrics T For Texas - Molly Hatchet

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
(yodel)
If you don’t want me, mamma, you don’t have to call
If you don’t want me, mamma, you don’t have to call
'Cause I can get more women than a passenger train can haul
(yodel)
I’m gonna buy me a pistol just as long as I am tall
I’m gonna buy me a pistol just as long as I am tall
I’m gonna shoot poor Thelma just to see her jump and fall
(yodel)
I’m goin' where the water drinks like cherry wine
I’m goin' where the water drinks like cherry wine
'Cause that Georgia water tastes like turpintine
(yodel)
I’m goin' to buy me a shotgun with a big long shiny barrel
I’m goin' to buy me a shotgun with a big long shiny barrel
I’m goin' to shoot that lyin' dog that stole away my gal
(yodel)
Rather drink muddy water, sleep in a hollow log
Rather drink muddy water, sleep in a hollow log
Than to be in Atlanta-treated like a dirty dog
(yodel)
