Lyrics
HOEDOWN TEA
I’m gonna get some (get some, get some)
I’m gonna get some hoedown tea
My mama’s fallen sick, please
Give her some hoedown tea
I don’t know what else to do
Give her that hoedown tea
Since my lady left me
Drinkin’ that hoedown tea
I’m so sad and lonely
Give me that hoedown tea
Got laid off last Saturday
Got kids to feed and bills to pay
Up all last night drinkin’
In the morning I’ll be hurtin’
Lost my ticket, missed my train
I need something to dull that pain
