Last Mule in the Holler Lyrics by The Local Honeys
The Local Honeys Lyrics
[Intro]
Last night, I said, "Son, I'll never fool with [?]"
I said they were crazy, the ones we fooled with (Yeah)
I said we knew when we seen that mule [?]
That we could win the world with it
But we had to know the button to push
[Verse 1]
By the age of thirty-six, he had done all he would do
He'd run away from one home, had the scars to show it too
A red headed danger, he had always fought the bit
Blue ribbon in his prime, but old age has settled in
[Verse 2]
Never out to pasture, this old lifе will end too soon
And he's runnin' with the filliеs in the glow of a harvest moon
A master of his own, never bent the knee nor bowed
And he's headed for the trees if we don't call him now
[Chorus]
'Cause he is the last mule in the holler
Aw, come on, boys, let's call him
Ooh
Ooh
Ah-ooh, ooh
Aw, come on, mule, come home
[Verse 3]
No longer does he ride, he is all but retired
And he's plowed his own grave in a field of muck and mire
A long life of show as the Muleskinner's Dream
And he's took his final rest under peaceful pastures green
[Chorus]
'Cause he is the last mule in the holler
Aw, come on, boys, let's call him
Ooh
Ooh
Ah-ooh, ooh
Aw, come on, mule, come home
Aw, come on, mule, come home
Aw, come on, mule, come home
