Lyrics
(African American folk song)
Whoa mule, whoa mule, whole mule I tell you.
Whoa mule I say!
Tied a slip knot in his tail
And his head slipped through the collar.
Hurry hurry save us,
Hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw!
Hurry hurry save us!
Whoa mule I say!
Refrain
Whoa mule I tell you,
Whoa mule I say!
Ain’t got time to kiss you now,
But don’t you run away.
