Washer woman, I know you're tired
Of taking in clothes
A dollar three-eighty a day
Your back is hurtin'
And that's for certain
You been bendin' over half of the day
You're beat them clothes on a washtub now
Scrub 'em in an iron tub
But as long as we keep singin' this song
I know you won't mind workin'
All day long
If you rub-a-dubba-dubba
Mama, bust them suds
And scrub, mama scrub
And then you rub-a-dubba-dubba
Mama, down in the tub
We gotta scrub, mama scrub
And we, all the time
We gotta scrub, mama scrub
And now now, get down get down
And scrub, mama scrub
You oughta listen at me, mama
You ain't gonna never fail
You started savin' in '44 now
You know you save 'em for a rainy day
Please come to me, mama
We ain't got time to play
Soapy water and dirty clothes now
They got you bendin' over half of the day
We gotta rub-a-dubba-dubba
Mama, bust them suds
And scrub, mama scrub
We gotta rub-a-dubba-dubba
Mama, down in the tub
We gotta scrub, mama scrub
And then we, bust them suds
Scrub, mama scrub
We gotta, down in the tub
We gotta scrub, mama scrub
And then we, bust them suds
Scrub, mama scrub
We gotta, down in the tub
We gotta scrub, mama scrub
We gotta scrub, mama scrub
And then we scrub, mama scrub
