Oh, I got me a woman, she's a pretty good woman at that.
We live with a monkey and a Chinese acrobat.
She calls me "Tex," makes me wear a cowboy hat.
But I don't care, she's a pretty good woman at that.
(Verse 2)
Nothing in the world make me treat that woman mean.
She shaves my beard and keeps my tractor clean.
She burns my bread, makes me eat turnip greens.
But I don't care, she's the best little woman I've seen.
(Chorus)
Some folks, they move out to California.
And some folks, they stay in Tennessee.
And I don't care where I'm heading.
Just as long as that woman stands by me.
Instrumental break
Repeat Chorus
(Verse 3)
Nothing that I'd rather do than spend my nights at home,
Talking with my baby and blowing on the slide trombone.
She talks in tongues, Ah! She really turns me on!
With a woman like that a man never wants to roam.
(Chorus)
Repeat last line and fade
