Texas toney, I can ball the, jack, indeed, my Lord,
Texas toney, I can ball the jack
I'd do anything, oh Lord, sure thing, to get my woman back

Mama, mama, sure, I am your, child, indeed, oh Lord,
Mama, mama, I know I am your child
My good work kill me, mama, sure thing, poor mama, let me die

If I could holler, like that Streamline, sure indeed, my Lord,
If I could holler, like that Streamline blow
I'd holler so loud, oh Lord, sure thing, fall on the killin' floor

Shoutin', brother, cried the whole night, Lord, indeed, my Lord,
Shoutin', brother, I cried the whole night long
I tried so hard, oh Lord, sure thing, to teach him from right from wrong

Bring my shotgun, pistol and some, shell, indeed, my Lord,
Bring my pistol, shotgun and some shell
Me and my woman, oh Lord, sure thing, we gon' try something now

SOLO (Spoken: Ah, let me go now, boys!)

Texas toney, I can ball the, jack, indeed, oh Lord,
Texas toney, I can ball the jack
I'd do anything, oh Lord, sure thing, to get that woman back

Mama, mama, know I am your, child, indeed, my Lord,
Mama, mama, I know I am your child
My good work kill me, mama, oh Lord, just let this poor boy die

Hear that rumblin', way down in the, ground, indeed, my Lord,
Hear that rumblin', way down in the ground
Musta been my woman, oh Lord, sure thing, she sure is jumpin' down
