Mule Skinner Blues (Blue Yodel No. 8)

I can make any mule listen or I won't accept your pay

Hey, hey, I won't take your pay

Yodel-a-ee-he-he

He-he-he-he-he-he, yeah

Well, hey, hey, little waterboy

Won't you bring your water 'round?

Hey, hey

If you don't like your job

Well, you can throw your bucket down

Throw it down boy, throw it down

Yodel-a-ee-he-he

He-he-he-he-he-he

Wow

At a greasy spoon café

Hey, that lovely joint

Just to let a no good man

Draw every cent of my pay

Hey, hey and I'm sick of it

I wanna be a mule skinner

Yodel-a-ee-he-he

He-he-he-he-he-he

Yodel-a-ee-he-he

He-he-he-he-he-he

Mule skinner blues, yeah

Get out here, beautiful corpse, give me that
