New Rubbing On That Darned Old Thing

My gal bought me washboard and a tub
I put a shirt on the board, started to rub
I start rubbin', rubbin' on the darned old thing

Now, she said: Poppa, don't you rub so rough
When you hear me holler, then that's enough
So I start rubbin', rubbin' on the darned old thing

And I start rubbin' it with care
While she sat down in a chair
I kept rubbin', rubbin' on the darned old thing

She said: I sure likes the way you rub
You got the best washboard bin in my tub
I start rubbin', rubbin' on the darned old thing

I kept rubbin', the clock struck six
Said: You got time to get your kicks
I start rubbin', rubbin' on the darned old thing

I said: Mama, just keep still
That stroke didn't get it, but this one will
I'll start rubbin', rubbin' on the darned old thing

I got tired, started to sweat
She said: Don't quit, you ain't started yet
I start rubbin', Frubbin' on the darned old thing

She held up her dress and started to grin
I said: Baby, let's do it again
Kept on rubbin', rubbin' on the darned old thing
