i've got me a woman

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
