[Verse 1]
Good morning, Captain
Good morning, son
Do you need another mule skinner
Out on your new wood line?
Yodel ei-ee-hee oh le-ee le-ee oh le-ee
[Verse 2]
I like to work
I'm rolling all the time
I can carve my initial
On your mule's behind
Yodel ei-ee-hee oh le-ee le-ee oh le-ee
Here comes James Burton on the acoustical guitar
Oh pick it!
[Verse 3]
Hey hey, little water boy
Hey, bring your water round
If you don't like your job
Then set your bucket down
Yodel ei-ee-hee oh le-ee le-ee oh le-ee
Here's Roy Nichols on the harmonica
[Verse 4]
I'm going to town, honey
What do you want me to bring you back?
How about a pint of booze and a John B Stetson hat
Yodel ei-ee-hee oh le-ee le-ee oh le-ee
Here's Norman Hamlet!
[Verse 5]
Hey, I smell your bread a-burning
Woman, turn your damper down
If you ain't got a damper
Good gal, turn your bread around
Around, I said, around
Yodel ei-ee-hee oh le-ee le-ee oh le-ee...
