Get Behind the Mule (Live Tulsa 06/25/08)
Molly be damned smote jimmy the harp With a horrid little pistol and a lariat Shes goin to the bottom And shes goin down the drain Said she wasnt big enough to carry it
She got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow She got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow She got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow She got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow
Choppity chop goes the axe in the woods You gotta meet me by the fall down tree Shovel of dirt upon a coffin lid And I know theyll come lookin for me boys And I know theyll come a-lookin for me
Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow
Big jack earl was 81 He stood in the road and he cried He couldnt make her love him Couldnt make her stay But tell the good lord that he tried
Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow
Dusty trail from atchison to placerville Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com On the wreck of the weaverville stage Beaula fired on beatty for a lemonade I was stirring my brandy with a nail boys Stirring my brandy with a nail
Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow
Well the rampaging sons of the widow james Jack the cutter and the pock marked kid Had to stand naked at the bottom Of the cross And tell the good lord what they did Tell the good lord what they did
Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow
Punctuated birds on the power line In a studebaker with the birdie joe joaks Im diggin all the way to china With a silver spoon While the hangman fumbles with the noose, boys The hangman fumbles with the noose
Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow
Pin your ear to the wisdom post Pin your eye to the line Never let the weeds get higher Than the garden Always keep a sapphire in your mind Always keep a diamond in your mind
Got to Get Behind The Mule In the morning and plow
