I'm gonna tear it down (bed slats and all)
Oh, I'm tearing it right down (bed slats and all)
I'm tearing it down, (bed slats and all)
I'm tearing it down, (bed slats and all)
If I catch another mule kicking in my stall
Papa's gonna tear it down, I mean
Papa's gonna tear it down
Went to my window, see what could I see
Gal was sitting on another man's knee
Cooked good biscuits and she cooked them brown
Think I'm the man brought???? to town
But if I catch another mule kicking in my stall
Boy, I'm gonna tear it down, I mean
Boy, I'm gonna tear it down
I'm gonna tear it down (bed slats and all)
Oh, I'm tearing it right down (bed slats and all)
I'm tearing it down, (bed slats and all)
I'm tearing it down, (bed slats and all)
If I catch another mule kicking in my stall
Papa's gonna tear it down, I mean
Papa's gonna tear it down
I'm gonna tear it down (bed slats and all)
Oh, I'm tearing it right down (bed slats and all)
I'm tearing it down, (bed slats and all)
I'm tearing it down, (bed slats and all)
If I catch another mule kicking in my stall
Papa's gonna tear it down, I mean
Papa's gonna tear it down
Went to my window and my window was drawn
Went to my door and my door was locked
Stepped right back and I shook my head
A big black n******g in my folding bed
Shot through the window and I broke the gla**
I never seen a little n******g run so fast
I catch another mule kicking in my stall
Boy, I'm gonna tear it down
