New Mule Skinner Blues

Good mornin', foreman good mornin', boss

Do you need another mule skinner

With a blacksnake whip to toss.

Yodel lay, ee ee, yodel ay ee ee.

Lord, I been workin' hard

An' ah feel so bad!

I've got a good woman

An' I want to keep 'er glad.

Yodel lay, ee ee, yodel ay ee ee.

I'm an ol' mule skinner from down Kentucky way

I can make any mule listen

Or I won't accept no pay.

Yodel lay, ee ee, yodel ay ee ee.
