NOTE: The track is spoken.

Hattie, oh Hattie, don't you hear your daddy callin', calling you name?

Now she can break it, or she can shake it. Yes, that gal can hang it up on the wall
She can throw it out the window and I'll be there, 'fore it fall

Now if you ever, go to East Texas, boys, you oughta stop by Palestine
Then you see my baby, my darlin', Hattie Green

Because I love her, yes, I love her, and I don't care what my baby do
Fellas, if you knew my sugar, I declare you would love her, too

(DURING SOLO) Now, let's pick it up a little bit, Well, well! all the time! So cool. Now let's get on the solid side. Be a solid enough state. Now, talk to me, daddy. Now pick up on it.

Now there's three places, in Texas, my baby sure wants to go
Houston, Dallas and San Antonio

Well it's Houston, let me go, Houston, I know the gals in every seaport town
I'm gon' take my baby down and stomp that seaport on down

Now if your baby, ever go to Dallas, don't let her go down on Central Track
The cats down there put down so much trash you'll never get her back

Now if she don't stay out of San Antone, off of East Commerce
You can bet your bottom dollar the Hepcat'll have her ridin' in a hearse

There's so many evil women, I'm gonna change my baby's name
I'm gonna set out in West Texas, look for a cowgirl on the range

(DURING SOLO) Ow, pick it a once more. Sure is easy if you know what it's about.

Now Hattie, Hattie! Oh Hattie, Hattie Green!
Don't you hear the Hepcat callin' my darlin', Hattie Green?
