Blue Yodel No.8 (Mule Skinner Blues) |
Good mornin' Captain |
Good mornin' Shine |
Do you need another mule skinner |
Out on your new mud line? |
Yo-del-lay-ee-ee, yo-del-lay-ee-ee-ee |
I like to work |
I’m rolling all the time |
I can carve my initials |
On a mule’s behind |
Yo-del-lay-ee-ee, yo-del-lay-ee-ee |
Yo-lay-ee, yo-lay-ee, yo-del-lay-ee |
Hey, little water boy |
Bring that water round |
If you don’t like your job |
Set that water bucket down |
Yo-del-lay-ee-oo-dee-ee-ee |
Yo-dee-yo-del-lay-ee-oo-del-ee-ee |
Yo-del-lay-ee-ee, yo-lay-ee-ee |
Dee-yo-del-lay-ee-ee-oo-ee-ee |
Workin' on the good roads |
Dollar and half a day |
My good gal’s waiting on Saturday night |
Just to draw my pay |
I’m going to town, honey |
What you want me to bring you back? |
Bring a pint of booze |
And a John B. Stetson hat, bring it comin' honey |
Dee-yo-del-lay-ee-ee-ee |
Dee-yo-del-ee-oh-del-ee-yo-del-ee-ee |
Dee-yo-del-lay-ee-ee, dee-yo-lay-ee-ee |
Yo-lay-ee-ee-lay-ee |
I smell your bread a burnin' |
Turn your damper down |
If you ain’t got a damper |
Good gal, turn your bread around |
Dee-yo-del-lay-ee, dee-yo-del-lay-ee |
Dee-yo-del-lay-ee-ee-lay-ee |
