Hello there
Well, good morning, captain
Good morning to you, sir
Hey-hey, yeah
Do you need another mule skinner
Down on your new mud run?
Hey-hey, yeah
Yodel-ay
ย
Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee
I'm a lady mule skinner
From down old Tennessee way
Hey-hey, I come from Tennessee
I can make any mule listen
Or I won't accept your pay
Hey-hey, I won't take your pay
Yodel-ay
ย
Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee, yeah
Well, hey, hey, little water boy
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-ay
ย
Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee
Whoo!
Well, I've been working down in Georgia
At a greasy spoon cafe
Hey, been working in Georgia
Just to let a no good man
Call every cent of my pay
Hey-hey, and I'm sick of it, I wanna be a mule skinner
Yodel-ay
ย
Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee
Yodel-ay
Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee
Mule skinner blues
Down, down
