T for Texas

Well, T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Thelma, the gal that made a wreck out of me

If you don't want me mama, you sure don't have to stall, oh no
If you don't want me, you sure don't have to stall
I can get more women, than a passenger train can haul

I'm going where water tastes like cherry wine
I'm going where water tastes like cherry wine
'Cause this Georgia water tastes like turpentine

If you don't want me woman, sure don't have to stall
If you don't want me, you sure don't have to stall
For I can get more women, than a passenger train can haul

I'd rather drink muddy water and sleep in a hollow log
I'd rather drink muddy water and sleep in a hollow log
Than to be here in Atlanta, get treated like a dirty dog
Women make a fool out of me

If you're ever down in Mobile, you can look me up
If you're ever down in Mobile, be sure to look me up
And if you're ever in Atlanta, tell Lucille to go to hell
Women make a fool out of me

T for Texas, T for Tennessee, lord
T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Thelma, the gal that made a wreck out of me
