Texarkana Baby Lyrics - The Complete Us Chart Singles 1945-62 - Eddy Arnold

She's my Texarkana baby do I love her Lowdy Law 

Her pappy came from Texas her maw from Arkansaw 

I'm twisted round her finger like a little piece of string 

And yet I'm satisfied because she's such a precious thing 

If she hauled off and slapped me I would never feel the sting 

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 Arkansaw 

She's pretty as a picture and you ought to hear her name 

It's sweet as sarghum syrup and good ol' blue ribbon cane 

She gives me lots of sugar and she never spills a grain 

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 Arkansaw 

One night I went a callin' on my pretty little maid 

I must admit to you I was a little bit afraid 

To offer her a diamond ring with one installment pay 

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 Arkansaw 

She's got two eyes that twinkle like a good ol' country star 

She's got a perfect figure that'll stop you where you are 

Why everytime I look at her I think of my guitar 

Se's my Texarkana baby
