New Mule Skinner Blues Lyrics


Good mornin' foreman, good mornin' boss
Do you need another mule skinner
With a blacksnake whip to tossYodel lay, ee ee, ay ee eeLord, I been workin' hard
And I feel so bad!
I've got a good woman
And I want to keep her gladYodel lay, ee ee, ay ee eeI'm an ol' mule skinner, down Kentucky way
I can make any mule listen
Or I won't accept your payYodel lay, ee ee, ay ee ee ee

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Bill Monroe (September 13, 1911 – September 9, 1996) developed the style of country music known as bluegrass, which takes its name from his band, the "Blue Grass Boys," named for his home state of Kentucky. Monroe's performing career spanned 60 years as a singer, instrumentalist, composer and bandleader. He is often referred to as "the father of bluegrass." In the rock (and roll) community, Bill Monroe may be best known via one of Elvis Presley's earliest recordings at Sun Records, that of Monroe's 'Blue Moon of Kentucky'. Patsy Cline also made a highly regarded version of this song.
