DOLLY PARTON - Washday Blues lyrics

rate me

(Porter Wagoner)

Last Saturday night I looked like a princess dressed in calico

Now blue Monday washday I look like a lady hobo.

Just rubbin' and a scrubbin' and a raisin' 'em out

I gotta hang 'em out early I hope the sun comes out

(Wash 'em out ring 'em out hang 'em on the line

Get a little tired just think about the good times) washday blues.

Now I ain't never been very lucky I ain't never won a prize

But I'd like to get a job on TV for some of that soap they advertise.

Rubbin' and scrubbin' and a raisin' 'em out

I gotta hang 'em out early I hope the sun comes out

(Wash 'em out ring 'em out hang 'em on the line

Get a little tired just think about the good times) washday blues.

Well, that good lookin' good lovin' no good man of mine

Could buy me a washin' machine

But he spends all his money on payday to make me look like a queen.

Now rubbin' and scrubbin' and a raisin' 'em out

I gotta hang 'em out early I hope the sun comes out

(Wash 'em out ring 'em out hang 'em on the line

Get a little tired just think about the good times) washday blues...
