Clothes Line Saga lyrics

After a while we took in the clothes
Nobody said very much
Just some old wild shirts and a couple pairs of pants
Which nobody really wanted to touch
Mama come in and picked up a book
An` Papa asked her what it was
Someone else asked, `What do you care?`
Papa said, `Well, just because?`
Then they started to take back their clothes
Hang`em on the line
It was January the thirtieth
And everybody was feelin` fine.

The next day, everybody got up
Seein` if the clothes were dry
The dogs were barking, a neighbor passed
Mama, of cource, she said, `Hi`
`Have you heard the news?` he said with a grin
`The Vice President`s gone mad`
`Where?` `Downtown.` `When?` `Last night`
`Hmm, say, that`s too bad`
`Well, there`s nothing we can do about it,` said the neighbor
`It`s just something we`re gonna have to forget`
`Yes, I guess so` said Ma
Then she asked me%2
