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 Listen to my baby when she plays my slide trombone She talks in tongues, boy that really turns me on With a woman like that, a man need never to roam Some folks get themselves together Some folks stay in Tennessee But I don't care where I'm goin' Just as long as that woman stays with me Nothin' in the world'd make me treat that woman mean She shaves my beard and she keeps my tractor clean She burns my food, makes me eat turnip greens But I don't care 'cause she's the best little woman I've seen Some folks get themselves together Some folks stay in Tennessee But I don't care where I'm goin' Just as long as that woman stays with me
