Got me a woman, she's a pretty good woman, I think We live with a monkey and a Chinese acrobat She calls me tips, makes me wear a cowboy hat I don't care, cause she's a pretty good woman, I think I like nothing 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 I don't care where I'm going Just as long as that woman stays with me Nothing in the world make me treat that woman mean She shaved my beard and she keeps my track tooth clean She burns my food, makes me eat turnip greens I don't care, cause she's the best little woman I've seen Some folks get themselves together Some folks stay in Tennessee I don't care where I'm going Just as long as that woman stays with me *
