Mule Skinner Blues (Blue Yodel #8)

Good morning captain good morning son
 Do you need another mule skinner
 Out on your new road line
 Well I like to work I'm rolling all the time
 Lord I like to work boy I'm rolling all the time
 I can pop my initials Right on a mule's behind
 Well it's hey little water boy bring your water 'round
 Lord it's hey little water boy bring your water 'round
 And if you don't like your job just set that water bucket down
 I work out on the new road from a dollar and a dime a day
 Lord I work out on the new road I make a dollar and a dime a day
 I've got three women on Saturday night Waiting to draw my pay
 Well I'm going to town honey what can I bring you back
 Well I'm going to town baby what can I bring you back
 Just bring a pint of good rye And a John B.Stetson hat
 Lord it's raining here and it's storming on the deep blue sea
 Lord it's raining here and it's storming on the deep blue sea
 Can't no blonde headed woman make a monkey out for me
 If your house catches fire and there ain't no water 'round
 If your house catches fire and there ain't no water 'round
 Just throw your good gal out the
 window let your house just burn on down
 Well I'm leaving here and I ain't gonna take no clothes
 I'm leaving here and I ain't gonna take no clothes
 There may be good times in this old
 town but it's better on down the road
