Lyrics:

Well, baba heading home boys, we've gotta shift up
We've gotta move that stubborn old mule
Grab ahead and hold it boys, we've gotta move
We've gotta move that stubborn old mule
We won't get nothing done until we move that mule

Well, this old mule done stuck her heels in
Making trouble in my field
This old mule she's stuck her heels in and
Making trouble in my field
We won't get nothing done, she won't run no mill

I said now Jenny Jenny stop your braying
We've gotta move that stubborn old mule
Jenny Jenny stop your braying
We've gotta move that stubborn old mule
We won't get nothing done until we move that mule

We've gotta move the mule, or we can't plough
We've gotta move the mule, or we can't sow
We've gotta move the mule, or we can't reap
We've gotta move that stubborn old so and so

Well this old mule won't hush her fussin'
She's calling to the donkeys over beyond the wall
Well this old mule won't hush her fussin'
She's calling to the donkeys over beyond the wall
I said get back Jenny, get back to your stall

We've gotta move the mule, or we can't plough
We've gotta move the mule, or we can't sow
We've gotta move the mule, or we can't reap
We've gotta move that stubborn old so and so

Well I am calling on the good Lord to give me patience
Calling on the good Lord to help me please
Calling on the good Lord oh
Calling on the good Lord to help me please

I'm just trying to work my field, won't you help for me

Grab ahead and hold it boys, we've gotta shift up
We've gotta move that stubborn old mule
Grab ahead and hold it boys, we've gotta move
We've gotta move that stubborn old mule

We won't get nothing done until we move that mule
Yeah we won't get nothing done until we move that mule
