Lyrics:
She caught the Katy And left me a mule to ride She caught the Katy And left me a mule to ride Now my baby caught the Katy Left me a mule to ride The train pulled out I swung on behind Crazy 'bout her That hard headed woman of mine Man, my baby's long Great gosh almighty my baby's tall You know my baby's long Great gosh almighty my baby's tall Yeah my baby she's long My baby she's tall She's sleepin' with her head in the kitchen And her feet's out in the hall Crazy 'bout her That hard headed woman of mine Well I love my baby She's so fine But I wish she'd come and see me some time She don't believe in our love, ah Look whatta hole I'm in She don't believe what I'm sayin' Kid look whatta shape I'm in Huh-huh She caught the Katy And left me a mule to ride She caught the Katy And left me a mule to ride Well my baby caught the Katy Left me a mule to ride The train pulled out I swung on behind Crazy 'bout that hard headed woman Hard headed woman of mine Huh-huh, huh-huh
