T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Texas and it's T for Tennessee
And it's T for Thelma, Lord she made a wreck of me

Well I don't miss you Thelma
No, I don't miss you at all
I don't miss you Thelma
No, I don't miss you at all
Cause I got more women
Than a passenger train can haul

She's long, she's tall
She's six feet from the ground
She's long, tall
Six feet from the ground
She's tellin me
She ain't no hand-me-down

What makes that rooster
Crow at the break of day
What makes that rooster
Crow at the break of day
To let little dog know
That the big dog's on it's way

I'm gonna buy me a shotgun
Bout as long as I am tall
Buy me a shotgun
Long as I am tall
I'm gonna shoot old Thelma
Just to see her jump and fall
