As' my Captain (1) what time o' day
As' my Captain what time o' day
He just look at his watchman an' he walk away
Wouldn't mind working, Captain, from sun to sun
Wouldn't mind working from sun to sun
As you pay me my money, Captain, when payday come
Tol' my Captain that ol' Maude was dead
Tol' my Captain ol' Maude da mool was dead
"Don't mind that ol' mule. Whoop the harness on Ned."
Went all 'round that ol' whole corral
Went all 'round that ol' whole corral
Lord, couldn't find a mule wit' his shoulders well
Six months ain't long, two years ain't no great long time
Six months ain't long, two years ain't no great long time
Got a friend in penitention doing nin'y-nine
Oughta been down on the river in the year nineteen and ten
Oughta been down on the river, in year nineteen and ten
Women wo' the ball and chain jus' like the men
