Mule Train

Vaughn Monroe


Hyah, hyah) Mule train!! (Hyah, hyah) Mule train!! 
Clippety cloppin' over hill and plain 
Seems as how they never stop, clippety clop, clippety clop 
Clippety, clippety, clippety, clippety, clippety cloppin' along 

There's a plug o'chaw tobacky for a rancher in Corona 
A ghee-tar for a cowboy 'way out in Arizona 
A dress of calico for a pretty Navajo 
Get along, mule! , get along 

Mule train!! (Hyah, hyah) Mule train!! 
Clippety cloppin' o'er the mountain chain 
Soon they're gonna reach the top, clippety clop, clippety clop 
Clippety, clippety, clippety, clippety, clippety cloppin' along 

There's some cotton thread and needles for the folks in way-out-yonder 
A shovel for a miner who left his home to wander 
Some rheumatism pills for the settlers in the hills 
Get along, mule!! , get along 

Mule train!! (Hyah, hyah) Mule train!! 
Clippety cloppin' through the wind and rain 
They'll keep goin' till they drop, clippety clop, clippety clop 
Clippety, clippety, clippety, clippety, clippety cloppin' along 

There's a letter full of sadness trimmed with black around the border 
A pair of boots for someone who had them made to order 
A bible in the pack for the Reverend Mr. Black 
Get along, mule! , get along 

Get along, mule, get along!! (mule train) 

(Hyah, hyah) 
(Hyah, hyah)
