Tennessee Border 2 - Ernest Tubb
Written by：Work Jimmy/Burns Kenneth/Haynes Henry B
Here eyes was red
Her name was helen
Her head looked like a water-melon
Her hair was long
She had a Toni
Her neck looked like a roll of bal-loney
Her teeth stuck out so fer
She didn't have much sense
She could gnaw an ear of corn
Right thru' a picket fence
Our marriage license cost a quarter
On the tennessee border
One night I took her out to see what we could see
Just then I saw her husband
And he stood six-foot three
He had brass knuckles-all made to order
Now my teeth are scattered on the tennessee border
Her eyes was red her name was hanner
Her nose looked like a big bananer
She weighs so much he had some trouble
He thought that he was seein' double
He put his arm around her and he tried to hug her
But he couldn't get close enough
'Cause she had too much blubber
She was too fat he couldn't court her
Now she wears a girdle 'round her tennessee border
One night I took her out just across the line
She stubbed her toe and fell in a barrel of turpen-tine
Hey young man
Yeah right here
What and where it happened
And where is my daughter
Well the last time I saw her red
She was head more
Tennessee border
