Laundromat Blues

(album: Born Under A Bad Sign - 1967)

You been meeting your man, baby
Down at the local laundromat
I say, you been meeting your man, baby
Down at the local laundromat
I've done got wise
An' daddy ain't going for that

Early every morning
You grab your old blouse or two
Yeah, you get up early in the morning
An' you grab your old blouse or two
Oh, you know you're right down to the laundry
While your man is waiting on you

You better hear my warning
I'm getting madder everyday
Yeah, you better hear my warning
I'm getting madder everyday
I don't want you to get so clean, baby
You just might wash your life away

Ya hear?
Well, alright

I know you don't know it, baby
But things look bad for you
The laundry's gonna trap you, darling
An' one more, one more dress will do
