What’s the Matter With the Mill Songtext
von Asleep at the Wheel

I took my wheat down to get it ground
The man that runs the mill said, "The mill broke drown"

What′s the matter with the mill? (What's the matter with the mill?)
What′s the matter with the mill? (Done broke down)
I can't get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill?

Listen here baby, give me a trial
I′d like a chance to feel what I satisfied

What′s the matter with the mill? (What's the matter with the mill?)
What′s the matter with the mill? (Done broke down)
Can't get no grinding
Tell me what′s the matter with the mill?

Ask my girl
She's the one did it
She began and lock it and just wouldn′t fit it

What's the matter with the mill? (What's the matter with the mill?)
What′s the matter with the mill? (Done broke down)
Can′t get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill?


Back it up baby, don′t push too hard
The mills too tough and I'm getting tired

What′s the matter with the mill? (What's the matter with the mill?)
What′s the matter with the mill? (Done broke down)
Can't get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill?
Swing it now

Oh baby, you make your man feel nine to six
I got to take a break while I get it fixed

What′s the matter with the mill? (What′s the matter with the mill?)
What's the matter with the mill? (Done broke down)
I can′t get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill?

If you don′t cut it out baby, I'm not done
Six-feet under and you walk by

What′s the matter with the mill? (What's the matter with the mill?)
Yeah, what's the matter with the mill? (Done broke down)
Can′t get no grinding
Tell me what′s the matter with the mill?


Can't get no grinding
Tell me what′s the matter with the mill?
The mill, the awkward mill
