Jimmie Rodgers - Blue Yodel No. 1 ("T For Texas") lyrics

T for Texas T for Tennessee [rpt] T for Thelma That gal that made a wreck out of me If you don't want me mama You sure don't have to stall [rpt] Cause I can get more women Than a pa**enger train can haul I'm gonna buy me a pistol Just as long as I'm tall [rpt] I'm gonna shoot poor Thelma Just to see her jump and fall I'm goin' where the water Drinks like cherry wine. [rpt] Cause this Georgia water Tastes like turpentine I'm gonna buy me a shotgun With a great long shiny barrel [rpt] I'm gonna shoot that rounder That stole away my gal 'Druther drink muddy water Sleep in a holler log [rpt] Than to be in Atlanta Treated like a dirty dog
