I gotta gal I love in North an' South Dakota,

There ain't no difference in my love, not one iota,

I guess the two gals put me one above the quota,

Still, I gotta gal in North an' South Dakota!



( Doo do, Doo, got lot's of gals! )



Wish I knew which one of my two love's is true . . .

I gotta gal I love in North an' South Dakota,

There ain't no difference in my love, not one iota,

Just wait 'till they hear about that gal in Minnesota . . .

Ah, it's a situation partner that vexes,

Guess I'll go back to that gal I love in Texas!



( Doo do, Don't want no other gal! )



I guess I'll go back to that gal I love in Texas!







Gotta gal he loves in North an' South Dakota,

There ain't no difference in his love, not one iota,

Wait 'till they hear about that gal in Minnesota . . .

Ah, that's a situation partner that vexes ( Doo do )

Guess I'll go back to the one I love in Texas!



Doo, doo, wish he knew what he should do,

Wish he knew which of his two loves is true . . .

I gotta gal I love in North an' South Dakota,

There ain't no difference in my love, not one iota . . .

Wait 'till they hear all about that girl in Minnesota . . .

Ah, there's a situation partner that vexes

Guess I'll go back to that gal I love in Texas! ( Texas, Texas, Texas! )

Guess I'll go back to that gal I love in Texas!
