Lord they accused me of murder
murder murder
I haven't harmed a man
Lord they accused me of murder
I haven't harmed a man
Ohhhhhhhhh
they accused me of murder and I
haven't harmed a man

Oh they accused me of forgery and I
I can't write my name
Lord they accused me of forgery
I can't write my name

Oh I went all around
that whole corral
I couldn't find a mule
with his shoulder well
Lord I couldn't find a mule
with his shoulder well

Oh I worked old Maude
and I worked old Belle
Lord I couldn't find a mule
Maggie, with his shoulder well

Lord that morning bell

Lord she went up the country and
well she's on my mind
Well she went up the country
but she's on my mind

Oh if she don't come on the big boat
she better not land
Lord if she don't come on the big boat
big boat
I mean she better not land

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Lord if she don't come on the big boat
I mean she better not land
