Robert Earl Keen — T for Texas lyrics

Lyrics

I’m going where the water drinks like cherry wine
I’m going where the water drinks like cherry wine
'Cause this Georgia water tastes like turpentine
Oh, T for Texas, T for Tennessee (T for Texas, T for Tennessee)
Oh, T for Texas, T for Tennessee (T for Texas, T for Tennessee)
Oh, T for Thelma (T For Thelma)
That gal done made a wreck out of me
I’m gonna buy me a pistol just because I’m tall (T for Texas, T for Tennessee)
I’m gonna buy me a pistol just because I’m tall (T for Texas, T for Tennessee)
I’m gonna shoot poor Thelma (Shoot poor Thelma)
Just to see her run and jump and fall
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 in Atlanta, treated like a dirty dog
Oh, T for Texas, T for Tennessee (T for Texas, T for Tennessee)
Oh, T for Texas, T for Tennessee (T for Texas, T for Tennessee)
Oh, T for Thelma (T For Thelma)
That gal done made a wreck out of me
