ʼTʼ for Thelma, the gal that made a wreck out of me
If you donʼt want me mama, you sure donʼt have to stall
If you donʼt want me mama, you sure donʼt have to stall
ʼCause I can get more women than a passenger train [can haul]
Well, Iʼm going where the water drinks like cherry wine
Iʼm going where the water drinks like cherry wine
ʼCause this Georgia water tastes like turpentine
Iʼd rather drink muddy water and sleep in a hollow log
Iʼd rather drink muddy water and 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 youʼre ever down in mobile be sure to look me up
If youʼre ever down in mobile be sure to look me up
And if your ever in Atlanta tell Lucille to go to hell
Women make a fool out of me
