VAN MORRISON
- Muleskinner Blues Lyrics / with translationsGood mornin' Captain, good mornin' shine
Good mornin' Captain, good mornin' shine
Do you need another mule skinner,
Workin' on your new road line?
My line's been rollin'
I'm rollin' all the time
My line is work
I'm rollin' all the time
I can carve my initials (ha!)
On an old mule's behind
I said hey, little waterboy (hey!)
Bring that water bucket 'round
(Bring it 'round, bring it 'round, bring it 'round, bring it 'round)
I said hey, little waterboy
Bring that water bucket 'round
And if you don't like your job
Shut that water bucket down
(stand up here!)
(Instrumental)
Good morning Captain, good mornin' shine
Good morning Captain, good mornin' shine
Do you need another mule skinner,
Workin' on your new road line?
Well I like to work,
I'm rollin' all the time
Well I like to work,
I'm rollin' all the time
I can carve my initials
On an old mule's behind
I said, good mornin' Captain
Good mornin' Captain
I said good mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Said good mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
I said good mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Good mornin' Captain, good mornin' shine
Do you need another mule skinner,
Workin' on your new road line?
My line's been rollin'
I'm rollin' all the time
My line is work
I'm rollin' all the time
I can carve my initials (ha!)
On an old mule's behind
I said hey, little waterboy (hey!)
Bring that water bucket 'round
(Bring it 'round, bring it 'round, bring it 'round, bring it 'round)
I said hey, little waterboy
Bring that water bucket 'round
And if you don't like your job
Shut that water bucket down
(stand up here!)
Good morning Captain, good mornin' shine
Good morning Captain, good mornin' shine
Do you need another mule skinner,
Workin' on your new road line?
Well I like to work,
I'm rollin' all the time
Well I like to work,
I'm rollin' all the time
I can carve my initials
On an old mule's behind
I said, good mornin' Captain
Good mornin' Captain
I said good mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Said good mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
I said good mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Mornin' Captain
Facts about Muleskinner Blues
✔️
Muleskinner Blues is written by Jimmie Rodgers, George Vaughn.
✔️
When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, the essence of the 'Mule Skinner Blues' by Van Morrison is that the singer adeptly portrays the tough, unyielding existence of a mule skinner through the metaphors of the monotonous work and the solicitation for the waterboy as symbols of the daily routine and the desire for relief or getaway. Muleskinner blues lyrics pointedly depict the feeling of empowerment, joy, inspiration, celebration and social commentary. At the same time, the song points out the hard work aspect, and being dissatisfied with the job one has and wanting to escape. The words include allusions to liquor ('a pile of whiskey') and have suggestive meanings ('Fondue down these things don't have') which might be inappropriate for minors.
