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
