1
Molly be damned smote Jimmy the Harp
2
With a horrid little pistol and a lariat
3
She's goin to the bottom
4
And she's goin down the drain
5
Said she wasn't big enough to carry it
6
She got to get behind the Mule
7
In the morning and plow
8
She got to get behind the Mule
9
In the morning and plow
10
She got to get behind the Mule
11
In the morning and plow
12
She got to get behind the Mule
13
In the morning and plow
14
Choppity chop goes the axe in the woods
15
You gotta meet me by the fall down tree
16
Shovel of dirt upon a coffin lid
17
And I know they'll come lookin for me boys
18
And I know they'll come a-lookin for me
19
Got to get behind the Mule
20
In the morning and plow
21
Got to get behind the Mule
22
In the morning and plow
23
Got to get behind the Mule
24
In the morning and plow
25
Got to get behind the Mule
26
In the morning and plow
27
Big Jack Earl was 8'1
28
He stood in the road and he cried
29
He couldn't make her love him
30
Couldn't make her stay
31
But tell the good Lord that he tried
32
(Chorus)
33
Dusty trail from Atchison to Placerville
34
On the wreck of the Weaverville stage
35
Beaula fired on Beatty for a lemonade
36
I was stirring my brandy with a nail boys
37
Stirring my brandy with a nail
38
(Chorus)
39
Well the rampaging sons of the widow James
40
Jack the cutter and the pock marked kid
41
Had to stand naked at the bottom
42
Of the cross
43
And tell the good lord what they did
44
Tell the good lord what they did
45
(Chorus)
46
Punctuated birds on the power line
47
In a Studebaker with the Birdie Joe Joaks
48
I'm diggin all the way to China
49
With a silver spoon
50
While the hangman fumbles with the noose, boys
51
The hangman fumbles with the noose
52
(Chorus)
53
Pin your ear to the wisdom post
54
Pin your eye to the line
55
Never let the weeds get higher
56
Than the garden
57
Always keep a sapphire in your mind
58
Always keep a diamond in your mind
59
(Chorus)
