I`ve got me a woman, she`s a pretty good woman at that We live with a monkey and a Chinese acrobat She calls me Tex and makes me wear a cowboy hat But I don`t care `cause she`s a pretty good woman at that
I like nothin` better than to spend my nights at home I listen to my baby playing her slide trombone She talks in tongues and boy that turns me on With a woman like that a man need never roam
And some folks get themselves to Heaven Some folks stay in Tennessee I don`t care where I`m headed Just as long as that woman stays with me
Nothin` in the world make me treat my woman mean She trims my beard, she keeps my tractor clean She cooks my food, she brings me turnip greens Yeah, I know she`s the best little woman I`ve seen
Some folks get themselves to Heaven Some folks stay in Tennessee I don`t care where I`m headed, no Just as long as that woman stays with me
