T for Texas - Jimmie Rodgers

    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: O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-lay-ee

    If you don't want me mama
    You sure don't have to stall
    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.

    YODEL

    I'm gonna buy me a pistol
    Just as long as I'm tall, Lawd, Lawd
    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.

    YODEL

    I'm going where the water
    Drinks like cherry wine, sing 'em boy, sing 'em
    Lawd, I'm going where the water
    Drinks like cherry wine
    'Cause the Georgia water
    Tastes like turpentine.

    YODEL

    I'm gonna buy me a shotgun
    With a great long shiny barrel
    I'm gonna buy me a shotgun
    With a great long shiny barrel
    I'm gonna shoot that rounder
    That stole away my gal.

    YODEL

    Rather drink muddy water
    Sleep in a hollow log
    Rather drink muddy water
    And sleep in a hollow log
    Than to be in Atlanta
    Treated like a dirty dog.
