Texarkana Baby
by Eddy Arnold
C
She's my Texarkana baby do I love her lowdy law
C7
Her pappy came from Texas her maw from Arkansas
F C
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
G7 C
She's my Texarkana baby
She's my Texarkana baby do I love her lowdy law
C7
Her pappy came from Texas and her maw from Arkansas
F C
She's pretty as a picture and you ought to hear her name
F C
It's sweet as sorghum syrup and good ol' blue ribbon cane
F C
She gives me lots of sugar and she never spills a grain
G7 C
She's my Texarkana baby
She's my Texarkana baby do I love her lowdy law
C7
Her pappy came from Texas and her maw from Arkansas
F C
One night I went a callin' on my pretty little maid
F C
I must admit to you I was a little bit afraid
F C
To offer her a diamond ring with one installment pay
G7 C
She's my Texarkana baby
She's my Texarkana baby do I love her lowdy law
C7
Her pappy came from Texas and her maw from Arkansas
F C
She's got two eyes that twinkle like a good ol' country star
F C
She's got a perfect figure that'll stop you where you are
F C
Why every time I look at her I think of my guitar
G7 C
She's my Texarkana baby
