Billy Walker - T For Texas (blue Yodel No. 1) lyrics

T for Texas T for Tennessee T for Texas T for Tennessee

T for Telma the gal who 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

Cause I can get more women than a passanger 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

I'm gonna shoot poor Telma just to see her jump and fall

[ guitar ]

Rather drink muddy water sleep in a hollow log

Rather drink muddy water sleep in a hollow log

Than to be in Atlanta treated like an old hound dog

Gonna buy me a shotgun with a big long shiny belt

Gonna get me a shotgun with a big long shiny belt

Gonna shoot that rounder the one who stole away my gal

T for Texas T for Tennessee...
