作曲：Hoagy Carmichael/Fred Callahan/Irving Mills

Morning comes with cloudy skies and rain

Mapo back and broke with pain

My man's sleepin'

I'se ascrubbin' chillin' weepin'

I'se arubbin' pains acreepin' clothes atubbin'

All day long

Up to that washin' soap

And down to that wattah once mo'

Head down low head low

Up to dat washin' soap

And down to that wattah once mo'

Po' hans go oh Lordy

So weary of scrubbin' days dreary

So weary of tubbin' nem clothes

Up to that washing soap

And down to dat wattah once mo'

Wash board blues

Never git me gone from hear

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'm goin' down to that river

Goin' down to that river some day

Through myself

Mapo self self away

Oh Lordy

Must a keep scrubbin'

Must a keep tubbin'

Must a keep drubbin'

Must a keep tubbing

Them old dirty clothes

But I'm goin' to that river

Goin' down to that river some day

Hurry day

Hurry day

Hurry day

Hurry
