VeggieTales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But let me tell ya, it's better than diggin' a ditch
There ain't no tellin' who you might meet
A movie star or maybe even an Indian chief
Workin' at the car wash
Workin' at the car wash, girl
Come on and sing it with me
Car wash
Sing it with the feelin' y'all
Car wash, girl
Some of the work gets kinda hard
This ain't no place to be if you planned on bein' a star
Let me tell you it's always cool
And the boss don't mind sometimes if you act the fool
Workin' at the car wash
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Car wash, girl
Come on, y'all and sing it for me
Car wash
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Car wash, girl
Work and work
Well, those cars never seem to stop coming
Work and work
Keep those rags and machines humming
Work and work
My fingers to the bone
Work
Can't wait till it's time to go home
Hey, get your car washed today
Fill up and you don't have to pay
Come on and give us a play
Do the wash, right away
The car wash
Talkin' 'bout the car wash
Car wash, girl
Come on, y'all, let's sing it with me
Car wash
Sing it with feelin', y'all
Car wash, girl
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Car wash
Those vever seem to stop comin'
Car wash, girl
Keep those rags and machines hummin'
Car wash
Let me tell you, it's always cool
Car wash, girl
And the boss don't mind sometimes if you act the fool
Workin' at the car wash
Car wash, girl
Car wash
Car wash, girl
Workin' at the car wash
Car wash, girl
Car wash
Car wash, girl
Workin' at the car wash
Car wash, girl

The final verse sums up the message of the song, encouraging people to come and get their cars washed at the car wash. The last lines repeat the chorus, further emphasizing the importance of singing together.
