Clean up at Home

Clean up at Home - Sleepy John Estes

I wash my clothes I hang 'em by the fire

Get up in the mornin' they be thoroughly dry

Clean up at home clean up at home

Clean up at home I 'clare you can't go wrong

I went to the beer tavern tryin' to make me a dime

Said "Go 'way boy clean up and git on some time "

Clean up at home clean up at home

Clean up at home I 'clare you can't go wrong

Five cents cap and ten cent suit

Then y'all think I'm tryin' to act cute I want to

Clean up at home clean up at home

Clean up at home I 'clare you can't go wrong

I was doin' somethin' that you can't do

Go 'round on State Street get a woman for a pot of stew you have to

Clean up at home you have to clean up at home

Clean up at home I 'clare you can't go wrong

I played for the colored I played for the white

All you got to do act kinda nice you got to

Clean up at home you got to clean up at home

Clean up at home 'clare you can't go wrong
