After a while we took in the clothes,

Nobody said very much.

Just some old wild shirts and a couple pairs of pants

Which nobody really wanted to touch.

Mama come in and picked up a book

An` Papa asked her what it was.
C
Someone else asked, "What do you care?"

Papa said, "Well, just because."

Then they started to take back their clothes,

Hang `em on the line.

It was January the thirtieth

And everybody was feelin` fine.

The very next day everybody got up
Seein` if the clothes were dry.
The dogs were barking, a neighbor passed,
Mama, of course, she said, "Hi!"
"Have you heard the news?" he said, with a grin,
"The Vice-President`s gone mad!"
"Where?" "Downtown." "When?" "Last night."
"Hmm, say, that`s too bad!"
"Well, there`s nothin` we can do about it," said the neighbor,
"It`s just somethin` we`re gonna have to forget."
"Yes, I guess so," said Ma,
Then she asked me if the clothes was still wet.

I reached up, touched my shirt,
And the neighbor said, "Are those clothes yours?"
I said, "Some of `em, not all of `em."
He said, "Ya always help out around here with the chores?"
I said, "Sometime, not all the time."
Then my neighbor, he blew his nose
Just as papa yelled outside,
"Mama wants you t` come back in the house and bring them clothes."
Well, I just do what I`m told,
So, I did it, of course.
I went back in the house and Mama met me
And then I shut all the doors.
