Jimmie Rodgers - Blue yodel (t for texas) lyrics

T for Texas, T for Tennessee T for Texas, T for Tennessee T for Thelma That gal that made a wreck out of me O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-ly-ee If you don't want me mama You sure don't have to stall, Lawd Lawd If you don't want me mama You sure don't have to stall 'Cause I can get more women Than a pa**enger train can haul O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-ly-ee 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 O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-ly-ee I'm goin' where the water Drinks like cherry wine, ding on boys, ding 'em Lord I'm goin' where the water Drinks like cherry wine 'Cause the Georgia water Tastes like turpentine O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-ly-ee 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 O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-ly-ee 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 O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-ly-ee
