Jerry Jeff Walker - Northeast Texas Women guitar chord

Northeast Texas Women

By Jerry Jeff Walker

Capo 2

C F G C

Say if you're South of Oklahoma, east of New Mexico,

C F G C

West of Louisiana, where Papa Charles always go

C F G C

We gotta a little place called Texas where the women grow on trees

C F G C

There right there for the pickin' good buddy just as easy as a man could please

Chorus:

F Dm7 Dm

Run take a hold

F Dm7 Dm

You're gonna get young 'fore ya get old

F Dm7 Dm

Those Texas ladies are Texas gold

G C

Kisses that are sweeter than cactus take no practice to love yeah

Now there east of Amarillo, a little south of old Dime Box

You can find a Cinderella or a genuine Goldilocks

And if ya don't like no love attachments, if your taste in women gets strange

You could probably find some things to live on, down in old La Grange

Chorus 2:

You better run tell the world

You gotta have a Lone Star girl

With her cast iron curls

Her aluminum dimples cause she's so simple to love

Now she's probably in Dallas, maybe down in old Cowtown

I've heard tell Texas women beat the others lyin' down

I just thought I might tell you in case you were unaware

'Bout those northeast Texas women with their cotton candy hair

Chorus 3:

You run dig a hole

You gonna get young before you get old

Now Texas women are Texas gold

Ahh there sweeter than cactus

Easy to love, yeah, easy to love

Easy to love, mmmmm

Chorus 4:

You run tell the world,

How you'll get Lone star girls

With their cast iron curls,

She's sweeter than cactus

And easy to love....
