Lyrics Freedom - Charles Mingus
This
mule
ain′t
from
Moscow
This
mule
ain't
from
the
South
But
this
mule
has
some
learnin′
Mostly
mouth-to-mouth
This
mule
could
be
called
stubborn
and
lazy
But
in
a
clever
sorta'
way
this
mule
could
be
workin',
Waitin′
and
learnin′
and
plannin'
For
a
sacred
kind
of
day
A
day
when
burnin′
sticks
and
crosses
is
not
mere
Child's
play
But
a
madman
in
his
most
incandescent
bloom
Whose
lover′s
soul
is
imperfection
and
is
most
lustrous
Groom.
So,
stand
fast
there
young
mule
Soothe
in
contemplation
That
burning
whole
and
aching
thigh
Your
stubbornness
is
ever
living
And
cool
anxiety
is
about
to
die
Freedom
for
your
daddy
Freedom
for
your
momma
Freedom
for
your
brothers
and
sisters
But
no
freedom
for
me
Freedom
for
your
daddy's
daddy
Freedom
for
your
momma′s
momma
Freedom
for
your
brothers
and
sisters
But
no
freedom
for
me
Freedom
for
your
daddy's
daddy
Freedom
for
your
momma's
momma
Freedom
for
your
brothers
and
sisters
But
no
freedom
for
me
