My daddy come home this mornin', drunk as he could be My daddy come home this mornin', drunk as he could be I know that he's done got bad on me He used to stay out late, now he don't come home at all He used to stay out late, now he don't come home at all I know there's another mule Been kicking in my stable If you don't like my ocean, don't fish in my sea If you don't like my ocean, don't fish in my sea
Stay out of my valley, let my mountain be I ain't had no loving since God knows when I ain't had no loving since God knows when That's the reason I'm through with these no-good, trifling Men You'll never miss the sunshine till the rain begin to fall You'll never miss the sunshine till the rain begin to fall You'll never miss your ham till another mule be in your stall
