Texarkana Baby

She＇s my Texarkana baby
Do I love her Lowdy Law
Her pappy came from Texas
Her maw from Arkansas
I＇m twisted round her finger
Like a little piece of string
And yet I＇m satisfied because
She＇s such a precious thing
If she hauled off and slapped me
I would never feel the sting
She＇s my Texarkana baby
She＇s my Texarkana baby
Do I love her Lowdy Law
Her pappy came from Texas
And her maw from Arkansas
She＇s pretty as a picture
And you ought to hear her name
It＇s sweet as sarghum syrup
And good ol＇ blue ribbon cane
She gives me lots of sugar
And she never spills a grain
She＇s my Texarkana baby
She＇s my Texarkana baby
Do I love her Lowdy Law
Her pappy came from Texas
And her maw from Arkansas
One night I went a callin＇
On my pretty little maid
I must admit to you
I was a little bit afraid
To offer her a diamond ring
With one installment pay
She＇s my Texarkana baby
She＇s my Texarkana baby
Do I love her Lowdy Law
Her pappy came from Texas
And her maw from Arkansas
She＇s got two eyes that twinkle
Like a good ol＇ country star
She＇s got a perfect figure
That＇ll stop you where you are
Why everytime I look at her
I think of my guitar
She＇s my Texarkana baby
