Scrubbin' |
Wash woman |
I know you’re tired |
Of taking in clothes |
A dollar three-eighty a day |
Know your back is hurtin' |
And that’s for certain |
Been bendin' over half of the day |
You’re beatin' clothes on a washtub |
Scrub 'em in an iron tub |
Long as we keep on singin' this song |
I know you won’t mind workin' |
All night long … |
I know you rub-a-dubba-dubba |
Mama, bust them suds |
(Scrub, Mama scrub) |
Again you rub-a-dubba-dubba |
Mama, bust them suds |
(Scrub, Mama scrub) |
'kay now, mama |
You gonna never play |
For the livin' in '44 |
Ain’t gonna come a rainy day |
Keep on working |
Keep those shirts and drawers |
As long as we keep on rolling on |
You won’t mind doing it all night long |
You got to rub-a-dubba-dubba |
Mama, bust them suds |
(Scrub, Mama scrub) |
Hey now, you gotta rub-a-dubba-dubba |
Mama, bust them suds |
Scrub, Mama scrub |
(Spoken: |
If you stop playin' them numbers |
I tell you up front |
You may be able to save the whole family |
At the rate the things you’re doin' is goin' |
We may all be out on the street come morning) |
I tell you, Mama |
Your dreams won’t help at all |
You might lose your mind in alcohol |
And that ain’t gonna get it a’t’all |
Listen at me, Mama |
Please hear my song |
Long as you keep bustin' suds |
I tell you gonna get it on and on |
Hey now can you rub-a-dubba-dubba |
Mama, bust them suds |
(Scrub, Mama scrub) |
Hey now won’t you rub-a-dubba-dubba |
Mama, bust them suds |
(Scrub, Mama scrub) |
(Fadeout) |
Hey now you got a rub it |
And then you dub it down |
Can you dig it? |
After you rub it a while |
You dub it in the tub down there |
With that soapy water |
All over them dirty clothes |
You’re gonna need Tide for the action |
You see them come out of the washing machine… |
