Good Old Electric Washing Machine Lyrics

John Hartford Good Old Electric Washing Machine

Well I sure do miss that Good Old Electric Washing
Machine,
The one that we ain't got 'round here no more.
And I sure do miss that big round tub and them stompin',
swingin' sounds
And I miss them groovy puddles on the floor.
The new one just sits there in all its glory on Monday
mornin' way over in the corner of the basement goin'
hmmmmmmmmm.
But the old one went - (washing machine noises)

Well I cry when I see that brand new automatic washing
machine,
'Cause I'm sentimental for the old machine still yet.
'Cause the old one really looks like a real, live washing
machine,
but the new one just looks more like a television set.

New one just sits there goin' hmmmmmm.
But the old one went - (washing machine noises)

(washing machine noises)
