Got Me a Woman - Levon Helm

Oh, I got me a woman, she’s a pretty good woman at that

We live with a monkey and a Chinese acrobat

She calls me «Tex,» makes me wear a cowboy hat

But I don’t care, she’s a pretty good woman at that

Nothing in the world make me treat that woman mean

She shaves my beard and keeps my tractor clean

She burns my bread, makes me eat turnip greens

But I don’t care, she’s the best little woman I’ve seen

Some folks, they move out to California

And some folks, they stay in Tennessee

And I don’t care where I’m heading

Just as long as that woman stands by me

Instrumental break

Repeat Chorus

Nothing that I’d rather do than spend my nights at home

Talking with my baby and blowing on the slide trombone

She talks in tongues, Ah!

She really turns me on!

With a woman like that a man never wants to roam

Repeat last line and fade
