I can hear to corrections to the lyrics.

'Two old men had a big row, one caught the other one lovin his cow.'. As graphic as it sounds I'm pretty sure that's what he said and that's why Bob Wills didn't include that verse but borrowed part of it for What's the matter with the mill'. This is also probably why Hobbs and Cox stayed relatively obscure

The other line I'm pretty sure is 'if she don't let my oozler be their gonna have to lay a lily on me., in other words she'll screw him to death and they put a lily on his grave
