       E                                      A
Well I sure do miss that good old electric washing machine
       E                                A
The one that we ain't got around here no more
       E                               
And I sure do miss that big round tub and them stompin, swinging sounds
                                     A
And I miss them groovy puddles on the floor
Spoken:
(The new one just sits there in all it's glory on Monday morning
Way over in the corner of the basement going (hummmmmmm)
But the old one went....( weird mouth sounds)

      E                     
Well I cry when I when I see that
       B7              A      E  
Brand new automatic washing machine
         E                                   A
Cuz I'm sentimental for the old machine still yet
          E                                           B7
Cuz the old one really looks like a real live washing machine
        E                      A                  E
But the new one just looks more like a television set
Spoken:
The new one just sits there a going...(hummmmmm)
But the old one went ......(weird mouth sounds)
          E                                   A
Tag:*****  Call the Maytag Man if he is still in business,
