Blue Yodel No 8 - The Carter Family

Good morning captain

Good morning shine

Do you need another mule skinner

Out on your new mud line?

Yodel-ay-ee-he

Yodel-ay-ee-he-e-hee

I like to work

I’m rollin' all the time

I can pop my initials

On a mule’s behind

Yodel-ay-ee-he

Yodel-ay-ee-he

A-lay-ee a-lay-ee odelayhee

Hey, little water boy

Bring that water 'round

If you don’t like your job

Set that water bucket down

Yodel-ay-he-ayoodela-hee

Yodel-eedel-odel-ayhee-deyoodela-hee

Yodel-ay-ee-he lay-ee-he

De-yodel-ayhee-hee-hee-a-hee

Workin' on the good roads

Dollar and a half a day-ay

My good gal’s waitin' on a saturday night

Just to draw my pay

I’m goin' to town honey

What you want me to bring you back?

Bring a pint o' booze

And a John B. Stetson hat

Bring it to me, honey!

Yodel-ay-ee-he

Yodel-eedel-odel-ayhee-deyoodela-he

Yodel-ay-ee-he deyodel-ay-ee-he

I smell your bread a-burnin'

Turn your damper down

If you ain’t got a damper

Good gal, turn your bread around!

Yodel-ay-he-deyodel-ay-hee
