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

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

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

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
