On The Trail |
| The stubbornest mule I ever saw |
| He’s tossin' his head, he’s raisin' ol' Ned |
| He’s gettin' me all of a twitter |
| That ornery critter, he goes |
| He must have been born in Arkansas |
| Don’t want to be led, he wants to be fed |
| Why he’d make the Statue of Liberty |
| Flibberty-gibberty |
| He’s hankerin' for a hunk of straw |
| He can’t hear my song, he’s joggin' along |
| His footsteps that are beating, are tellin' him soon |
| He’ll be eatin' his fill |
| (Clipperty-hopperti, clipperty-clop) |
| (Clipperty-hopperti, clipperty-clop) |
| (Clipperty-hopperti) |
| Over the rim of the hill |
| We’re on the trail |
| The sun is low, the canyon is wide |
| Hi-ee, hi-oo |
| We sing a song as we ride |
| We’re on the trail |
| My mule and I, we haven’t a care |
| Hi-ee, hi-oo |
| My heart is free as the air |
| Out on the ole painted desert |
| I know a wonderful site |
| Where we can build us a fire |
| Where we can spend the night |
| The sun will rise |
| And in the skies, the stars grow pale |
| Hi-ee, hi-oo |
| And we’ll be back on the trail |
| Be back on the trail, the trail, the trail |
