MULE SONG
Sung to the tune of the Wabash Cannonball.
From the hills of West Virginia to the Pacific Cascade Trail.
You'll see our Mules a comin' over mountains head to tail.
Their longears a floppin' in the breeze, their bray's a lonesome sound.
You'll never find a better friend when you're coverin' rough ground.
George Washington was a smart man when he met the King of Spain.
There's one thing that he wanted and he made it very plain.
He needed a clever Jack to get a fancy Mule
The King of Spain agreed to that. That's how we got out Mule.
Some say a Mule is stubborn. Some say a Mule's a fool.
Well the man who said all of those things he never owned a Mule.
A man once said you've got to be smarter than a Mule.
Cuz he'll out wit you every time and you'll wonder who's the fool.
I get up in the morning and up the trail I start.
I never worry where I'm going, my Mule is to darn smart.
To go where there is trouble, I'm as safe as I can be.
That Mule don't want to hurt herself anymore than she does me.
Listen to the clip clop as you scale the Mountainside.
That longeared friend will never stop when you're takin' a long ride.
And when I go to Heaven I'll be ridin' on my Mule.
She'll take me to those Pearly Gates and they'll open for my sure.
Oh she'll take me to those Pearly Gates and they'll open for my Mule.
