Greg Brown - Bathtub Blues lyrics

rate me

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

Gotta take a bath every night.

I wash my nose, scrub my toes,

Oh-oh Mama, forgot to take off my clothes.

Now I'm swish-swish-swishin',

Splash, splash, splashin',

Goosh, goosh, gooshin',

Slipping and a-sliding,

Running down the hallway-

My Mama's coming after me

Papa's coming after me

The dog is coming after me

I'm afraid they're going to catch me

Ob boy, am I in trouble- down the hall I go

I fell asleep. I fell asleep.

I was lying in the bathtub and I fell asleep.

Such a nice warm bathtub, I fell asleep.

Such a nice warm bathtub, I fell ...

When I woke up in the morning

I had turned into to a duck

All the kids at school said "Oh, what a fool!

He fell asleep in the bathtub!

He turned into a duck!"

Yea, but I just laughed and then I flew away.

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

I get so dirty,

Gotta take a bath every night.
