Mule Skinner Blues — текст песни (Bill Monroe)

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
