Scrub Me Mama With a Boogie Beat |
In Harlem there’s a little place where everyone goes |
To see the way a washerwoman washes her clothes |
If you like boogie woogie rhythm, she’s got a beat |
Let the boogie woogie washerwoman give you a treat! |
On every afternoon at one the sessions begin |
And all the boys from all the bands come down and sit in |
They sit around and knock each other out when they play |
While the boogie woogie washerwoman washes all day |
Rubbley-ub-dub, that’s just the way she rubs |
Rubbley-ub-dub, that’s just the way she scrubs |
Rubbley-ub-dub, she wears out all her dubs |
She rubs and rubs her knuckles right down to the nubs! |
Rubbley-ub-dub, that’s how she kicks it off |
Rubbley-ub-dub, she keeps it nice and soft |
Rubbley-ub-dub, till someone hollers on |
«Scrub me mama with a boogie beat!» |
You really ought to visit there if you’ve never been |
It doesn’t cost a penny, just come down and walk in |
If you like boogie woogie rhythm, you’ll get a treat |
Let the boogie woogie washerwoman give you the beat! |
Rub rub rub rub, a-rubbin' all day |
She’s a-scrubbin' a boogie woogir rhythm all day! |
Scrub, rub, a-washin' all day |
Scrub me mama with a boogie beat! |
Scrub me mama, scrub me clean |
And let me dream till (scat) |
Rubbley-ub-dub, that’s the way she scrubs |
Rubs rubs rubs, rubbib' along |
Singin' a baloogie woogie song |
Toot-toot-toot-doodley-ah-dah! |
That’s how she kicks it off |
Ti-diddley-ah-hah! |
She keeps it nice and soft |
Ti-diddley-ah-hah! |
To someone, all is all |
Scrub me mama with a boogie beat! |
