Washboard Blues (05-09-38) - Mildred Bailey
Mornin' comes with cloudy skies and rain
Ma po back is broke with pain
My man's sleepin', I'se ascrubbin', chillin', weepin'
I'se arubbin', Pains acreepin', clothes atubbin'
All day long.
Up to dat washin' soap
And down to dat water once mo'
Head down low head low
Up to dat washin' soap
And down to dat water once mo'
Po' hans go oh Lordy.
So weary of scrubbin', days dreary
So weary of tubbin' dem clothes,
Up to de washin soap
Down to dat water once mo'.
Wash Board Blues.
Never git me gon from here
Srubbin' dirty clothes all year
Dem clothes, muckety clothes
Raggedy clothes, dem grimey clothes, that's all I know
Up and down, back and forth, all day long
Oh Lordy, won't you hear my song, hear my song.
I goin' down to dat river
Goin' down to dat river some day
Going myself
My poor self
Self away
Oh Lordy
Mus' akeep scrubbin' mus' akeep tubbin' mus' akeep drubbin' mus' akeep tubbin
Them ole dirty clothes
But I'm goin' to dat river
Goin' down to dat river some day
Hurry day hurry day hurry day hurry.
