I went to my kitchen, and what did I see
All my ***** dishes, looking back at me
I got dishes - I got them ***** dishes
No matter what I say, no matter what I do
I got them - ***** dishes blues

My babe come to see me on a Friday night
She looked in my kitchen and said, you know that ain’t right
You got dishes - you got them ***** dishes
No matter what I say, no matter what I do
I got them - ***** dishes blues

When I get home, you know what I’ll do
I’ll get some water, make some soap suds too
And wash my dishes,  I’ll wash my ***** dishes
No matter what I say, no matter what I do
I got them - ***** dishes blues
