Walking Without A Mule

from Destroy All Conifers by Quintessence

/

about

The only song on the album where both me and Phil share vocal duties. The song was written by Phil and was recorded live. I added in some whistling-wind noises to add to the wild-west effect we were after. There is a slide-guitar in the middle section too!

lyrics

My mule is dead
He got shot by a gun
My mule is dead
I don’t know where to get another one

It’s no fun
Walking without a mule

My mule is dead
I sent him for pet food
My mule is dead
I got a tidy sum for that ass

It’s no fun
Walking without a mule

‘Cus I need some plasters
Especially for blisters
‘Cus mine are the size of a washing machine

My mule is dead
He got shot by a gun
My mule is dead
Dead, dead, dead, dead

It’s no fun
Walking without a mule
