Billy’s Mule

[Chorus]
Oh, Billy's mule can tow the wagon, he can pull a plow
He can figure 'rithmetic and milk a muley cow
Don't need no education, he ain't never been to school
But anything worth doing can be done by Billy's mule

[Verse 1]
I was on a date the other night with good old Sally Brown
I took her to a dog fight on the other side of town
I noticed when I kissed her she was acting kinda cool
She said, "I get more pleasure out of kissing Billy's Mule"

[Chorus]
Billy's mule can tow the wagon, he can pull a plow
He can figure 'rithmetic and milk a muley cow
Don't need no education, he ain't never been to school
But anything worth doing can be done by Billy's mule

[Verse 2]
There's a famous mule named Francis in the magazines I've read
I mentioned him to Billy's mule, this is what he said
"He's mighty high-falutin' in them fancy picture shows
But that's my younger brother, and I taught him all he knows"

[Chorus]
Billy's mule can tow the wagon, he can pull a plow
He can figure 'rithmetic and milk a muley cow
Don't need no education, he ain't never been to school
But anything worth doing can be done by Billy's mule

[Verse 3]
A talent scout from Hollywood came into town one day
He said, "I'll make you famous if you learn to sing and play"
But Billy's Mule just laughed and said, "I don't want to be a star
But who do you think taught Elvis how to play the ol' guitar?"
Uh-huh, uh-huh, yeah, yeah, uh-huh

[Verse 4]
I get so mad when I draw my pay and all my money's spent
I called up the White House and told the President
"If you don't cut out this income tax, you ain't no friend of mine"
He said, "I'll check with Billy's mule, he's on the other line"

[Chorus]
Billy's mule can tow the wagon, he can pull a plow
He can figure 'rithmetic and milk a muley cow
Don't need no education, he ain't never been to school
But anything worth doing can be done by Billy's mule

[Outro]
Anything worth doing can be done by Billy's mule
