Long way from home
Can't sleep at night
Grab your telephone
'Cause something just ain't right

(chorus:)

That's evil
Evil is going on
Well I'm warning you girls
You better watch your happy home

Long way from home
Can't sleep at all
'Cause there's another
Mule kickin' in your stall
(chorus)

Yes you make it to your house
Knock on the front door
Run around to the back
Catch her before she go
(chorus)

Well if you call on the telephone
The answer's awfully slow
Grab the first train smokin'
Even if you have to hobo
(chorus)
