Sunshine Boy

T for Texas, T for Tennesee

T for Texas, T for Tennessee

T for Thelma

That gal made a wreck out of me.

If you don't want me mama

You sure don't have to stall

If you don't want me mama

You sure don't have to stall

'Cause I can get more women

Than a passenger train can haul.

I'm gonna buy me a pistol

Just as long as I'm tall, Lawd, Lawd

I'm gonna buy me a pistol

Just as long as I'm tall

I'm gonna shoot poor Thelma

Just to see her jump and fall.

I'm gonna buy me a shotgun

With a great long shiny barrel

I'm gonna buy me a shotgun

With a great long shiny barrel

I'm gonna shoot that rounder

That stole my gal.

Rather drink muddy water

Sleep in a hollow log

Rather drink muddy water

And sleep in a hollow log

Than to be in Atlanta

Treated like a dirty dog.
