"Well good morning captain, good morning to you shine.
Do you need a new mule skinner, out on your new mud line.
Hey, hey, hey, we gonna do a little bit of the mule skinner blues.

Well I smell your bread a burning, woman go and turn your damper down. Turn it down.
If you ain't got no damper, woman go and turn your bread around. It's a getting brown.
Hey, hey, hey, we gonna do a little bit of the mule skinner blues.

Well I'm going to town honey, what do want me to bring you back.
Bring me a pint of old hard booze, and a John B. Stetson hat.
Hey, hey, hey, we gonna do a little bit of the mule skinner blues.

Well now hey there little water boy, get your butt up off the ground.
Dip that bucket of water son, bring that bucket round.
If you don't like your job, set the water bucket down.
Hey, hey, hey, we gonna do a little bit of the mule skinner blues.

I'm an old mule skinner, down old Kentucky way.
I can make any mule listen, or I won't accept your pay.
Hey, hey, hey, we gonna do a little bit of the mule skinner blues.

Well good morning captain, good morning to you shine.
Do you need a new mule skinner, out on your new mud line.
Hey, hey, hey, we gonna do a little bit of the mule skinner blues.
