D                                                              A
Her plane will land in Dallas about the time I get back to the farm
   A                                                                   D
By now she's probably leveled off and having drinks and turning on the charm
   D                                                                     G
My plans to get her out of town and then get it on just turned around on me
            G                     A                           D
While she's raising cane in Texas, I'm pulling weeds in Tennessee


Chorus:
    G    
And early in the morning I'll find the nerve to call her on the phone
    E7                                                                A
Say come on home to daddy Cause your poopsey just don't like it here alone
        D                                                                                 G
There's cowboy's that'll hold her tight and they'll dance all night and still make two of me
            G                     A                           D
While she's raising cane in Texas, I'm pulling weeds in Tennessee


While I'm searching through the closets for the dancing shoes I thought she left behind
She's probably out with Willie's band, getting high on what keeps Willie high
And I'm starring in the mirror at the hat that used to look so good on me
While she's raising cane in Texas, I'm pulling weeds in Tennessee


Chorus

While she's raising cane in Texas, I'm pulling weeds in Tennessee
