T for texas


Well, T for Texas, T for Tennesee
T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Thelma, the gal that made a wreck out of me
If you don't want me momma,
you sure don't have to stall, oh no
If you don't want me mamma,
you sure don't have to stall.
Well, I can get more women than a passenger train can haul.

Well, I'm goin where the water drinks like cherry wine
I'm going where the water drinks like cherry wine
'Cause this Georgia water, tastes like turpintine.

Well, if you don't want me momma,
you sure don't have to stall,
If you don't want me woman,
you sure don't have to stall,
Well I can get more women than a passenger train can haul

I'd rather drink muddy water,
Sleep in a hollow log,
I'd rather drink muddy water,
Sleep in a hollow log,
Than to be here in Atlanta
And get treated like a dirty dog.

Women make a fool out of me.

If you're ever down in Mobile,
you can look me up,
If you're ever down in Mobile
be sure to look me up.
And if you're ever in Atlanta,
tell Lucille to go to hell.

Women make a fool out of me.

T for Texas, T for Tennessee

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Outlaws sono una band di southern rock formatasi a Tampa, in Florida, alla fine del 1967. I membri fondatori erano il chitarrista e cantante Hughie Thomasson, il batterista David Dix, il bassista Phil Humberg, i chitarristi Hobie O'Brien e Frank Guidry, e il cantante Herb Pino. Guidry portò con sé il nome Outlaws quando si unì al gruppo (aveva fatto parte di un'altra band con lo stesso nome). Prima dell'arrivo di Guidry, la band si chiamava The Rogues, poi The Four Letter Words. All'inizio del 1968, O'Brien e Humberg lasciarono il gruppo per sposarsi e Frank O'Keefe entrò al basso. Nella primavera del 1968, il primo manager della band, Paul D., li portò negli Epic Studios di New York City per registrare un album che non fu mai pubblicato dopo una disputa tra la band e il produttore dell'album. Guidry lasciò il gruppo in seguito a divergenze con il manager. Il gruppo tornò a Tampa, poi ottenne un altro contratto per andare agli Criteria Studios di Miami per registrare un altro album con il produttore Phil Gernhard. Anche questo album non fu mai pubblicato e Gernhard scomparve poco dopo. Ronny Elliott entrò nel gruppo intorno a quel periodo per suonare il basso mentre O'Keefe passò brevemente alla chitarra. Ma O'Keefe tornò al basso dopo che Elliott lasciò il gruppo nel 1969 e Herb Pino iniziò a suonare anche la chitarra oltre a cantare. Il batterista Monte Yoho entrò nello stesso anno per sostituire Dix e alla fine assunse definitivamente il posto di batterista. Il gruppo si separò anche dal manager Paul D. Entro il 1971, le offerte di concerti erano diminuite e il gruppo cadde in un limbo per circa un anno, non sicuro se avrebbe continuato. Nel 1972, la band firmò con l'etichetta discografica Arista Records e pubblicò il suo album di debutto omonimo, che divenne un successo commerciale e li consacrò come una delle band più importanti del southern rock.
