Scrub Me Mama With A Boogie Beat by Andrews Sisters
In Harlem there's a little place where everyone goes
To see the way a washerwoman washes her clothes.
If you like boogie woogie rhythm, she's got a beat,
Let the boogie woogie washerwoman give you a treat!
On every afternoon at one the sessions begin,
And all the boys from all the bands come down and sit
in.
They sit around and knock each other out when they
play,
While the boogie woogie washerwoman washes all day.
Rubbley-ub-dub, that's just the way she rubs,
Rubbley-ub-dub, that's just the way she scrubs,
Rubbley-ub-dub, she wears out all her dubs,
She rubs and rubs her knuckles right down to the nubs!
Rubbley-ub-dub, that's how she kicks it off,
Rubbley-ub-dub, she keeps it nice and soft,
Rubbley-ub-dub, till someone hollers on,
"Scrub me mama with a boogie beat!".
You really ought to visit there if you've never been,
It doesn't cost a penny, just come down and walk in.
