T for Texas

T for Texas - Grandpa Jones

Lyrics by：Slater Terrence Ronald

Composed by：Slater Terrence Ronald

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

If you don't want me mama you sure don't have to stall

But I can get more women

Than a passenger train can haul

Gonna buy me a pistol just as long as I'm tall

Gonna buy me a pistol just as long as I'm tall

Gonna shoot poor Thelma just to see her jump and fall

Rather drink muddy water and sleep in a hollow log

Rather drink muddy water and sleep in a hollow log

Than to be in Atlanta treated like a low hall dog

Gonna buy me a shotgun with a great long shiny barrel

Gonna buy me a shotgun with a great long shiny barrel

Gonna shoot that rounder that stole away my gal
