T for Texas
T for Tennessee
T for Texas
T for Tennessee
T for Thelma
That gal who made a wreck out of me.

Gonna buy me a shotgun
As long as I am tall
Buy me a shotgun
As long as I am tall
And I'm gonna shoot poor Thelma
Just to see her jump and fall.

Rather drink muddy water
And sleep in a hollow log
Drink muddy water
And sleep in a hollow log
Than to be in Atlanta
Treated like a dirty dog

If your house catches fire
And there ain't no water around
If your house catches fire
And there ain't no water around
Throw your suitcase out the window
And let that house burn on down

To the ground
