Lyrics

[Chorus]
She caught the Katy and left me a mule to ride
She caught the Katy and left me a mule to ride
Yeah, 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
[Verse 1]
Man, my baby long, great gosh almighty, my baby tall
You know my baby long, great gosh almighty, my baby tall
Yeah, my baby, she long, my baby, she 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
[Bridge]
Well, I love my baby, she's so fine
But I wish she'd come and see me sometime
She don't believe in our love, ah, look what a hole I'm in
She don't believe I'm sinkin', look what shape I'm in
Huh, huh
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
Huh, huh, huh, huh
