Well, T for Texas, T for Tennesee
T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Thelma, the gal that made a wreck out of me
If you don't want me momma,
you sure don't have to stall,
If you don't want me mamma,
you sure don't have to stall
Well, I can get more women than a passenger train can haul

Well, I'm goin where the water drinks like cherry wine
I'm going where the water drinks like cherry wine
'Cause these Georgia women, taste like turpintine

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

I'd rather drink muddy water,
Sleep in a hollow log,
I'd rather drink muddy water,
Sleep in a hollow log,
Than to be here in Atlanta
And 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 in Mobile
be sure to look me up
And if you're evfer in Atlanta,
tell Lucille to go to hell

Women make a fool out of me

T for Texas, T for Tennessee
