. . . hey hey hey hey, uh huh,
Huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh.

Hey, little waterboy, bring that water bucket,
Uh huh huh huh huh huh.
If you don’t like your job,
Waterboy, you can sit that bucket down.

Chorus: Hey hey hey hey, uh huh,
Huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh.

I’m a . . . mule skinner from away down Kentucky,
Uh way hey hey hey hey hey.
Now, I can lick any mule now, listen.
Or I won’t accept your pay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay.

(Chorus)
