Her pappy came from Texas her maw from Arkansas

I'm twisted round her finger like a little piece of string

    F                                      C
And yet I'm satisfied because she's such a precious thing

       F                                 C
If she hauled off and slapped me I would never feel the sting

One night I went a callin' on my pretty little maid

       F                    C
