Mule Skinner Blues Lyrics

Hey good morning Captain good morning sunshine
Do you need a mule skinner on your new line I do ol lei ee ee ha ha ha ha ha ha
[ strings ]
Hear that old whip crackin' hear that old mule skinner yell
He comes down from Kentucky he hears the southern bell
I do ol lei ee ee ha ha ha ha ha ha
[ strings ]
Hey little water boy bring your water round
You don't like your job just got that buck buck bucket down
I do ol lei ee ee ha ha ha ha ha ha
Hey good morning Captain...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
