Working At The Car Wash Blues Jim Croce 1974 | (Royal 1026) Jet Roberts |
OPENER Mainstream
Circle left
I had just gotten out of the county prison
Doing 90 days for non-support
Left allemande the corner, dosado your own
Left allemande and weave the ring
They wouldn't listen to the fact that I was a genius
The man said we got all that we can use
With them steadily depressing, low-down mind messing
Working at the car wash blues
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads promenade halfway
Square thru 2, swing thru, boys run
Bend the line right & left thru
Pass the ocean, recycle
Swing and promenade
With them steadily depressing, low-down mind messing
Working at the car wash blues
MIDDLE BREAK Mainstream
Circle left
I should be sitting in an air conditioned
Office with a swivel chair
Left allemande the corner, dosado your own
Left allemande and weave the ring
Instead I'm stuck here rubbing these fenders with a rag
And walking home with soggy old shoes
With them steadily depressing, low-down mind messing
Working at the car wash blues
CLOSER Mainstream
Four boys promenade one time around
Get back and swing with your man
Join hands circle left
Allemande left and weave the ring
They wouldn't listen to the fact that I was a genius
The man said we got all that we can use
With those steadily depressing, low-down mind messing
Working at the car wash blues
