You know my mama bought a washbo'd
An a brand new tub
My daddy had one old dirty shirt
An they began to rub
They come just to rubbin'
A-come just to rubbin'
A-come just to rubbin'
They just a-kept on a-rubbin' on the same old thing
Come just to rubbin'
Come just to rubbin'
A-come just to rubbin'
They just a-kept on rubbin' on the same old thing
Well now look-a-here, Big Bill
Don't you be tryin-a play me cheap
If you ain't gonna rub
Son, you got-ta move next week!
You better start to rubbin'
Better come to the rubbin'
A-come just to rubbin'
You just a-keep on rubbin' on the same old thing
(harmonica & Instrumental)
You know I met a little girl
She was all trimmed out in blue
She saw me rubbin'
She started to rubbin', too
An when she come, just to rubbin'
Come just to rubbin'
A-come just to rubbin'
We just a-kept on a-rubbin' on the same old thing
Come just to rubbin'
A-come just to rubbin', now
Come just to rubbin'
We just a-kept on a-rubbin' on the same old thing.
(harmonica & instrumental to end)
