lyrics

Gonna get me a girlfriend to laugh at all my jokes.
Gonna get me a bottle of sweet soda pop
And a packet of smokes.

When I smoke the first one, there's nothing I can't do.
When I smoke the last, I swear I'm through.

I'm a kickin' mule.
Hey yeah, I'm a kickin', kickin' mule.
Yes I'm a kickin' mule, and I kick it like I want it when I want it to.

Gonna get a household name and a seat on the board.
I'll get soap that smells.
I'll get product that sells and my eternal reward.

I'll be the go-to man on the final play,
Coast-to-coast 'cross the U.S.A.
I'll be cruel and unusual for a limited time.
Better watch your back. Better watch your mind.

'Cause I'm a kickin' mule.
Hey yeah, I'm a kickin', kickin' mule.
Yes I'm a kickin' mule, and I kick it like I want it when I want it to.

Oh yes, it's hard.
Oh yes, it is.
When you got critics criticizin' every single thing that you ever did

And there's a pressure, baby,
You got to get away from.
And there's a peace and a freedom.
You got to get you some.

Gonna get a new suit of clothes
And a new cut of hair,
A hat like the pope
And a comfortable chair.

I'm here to make the scene.
I'm gonna get you pumped.
I'll be the new-crowned king of the hustle and bump.
I'll be the funky fresh fella that you wanna talk to.
I'll be gluin' back together everything that's unglued.

'Cause I'm a kickin' mule.
Hey yeah, I'm a kickin', kickin' mule.
Yes I'm a kickin' mule, and I kick it like I want it, kick it like I want it,
Kick it like I want it when I want it to.

Jason Harrod Durham, North Carolina

“What singer-songwriter Jason Harrod does best is turn daily moments numinous. Quite simply, Harrod’s imagination is for
this world; he finds deep secrets in ordinary places.” — Image Journal
