Well I tossed my blue jeans in the wash last night Yeah, I tossed my blue jeans in the wash last night Now my socks, shirts, towels and my long johns don’t look right My white T-shirt turned the color of the rain Said my white T-shirt turned the color of the rain Even my polka-dot boxers ain’t never gonna be the same I got them blue-jean laundry blues Lord, them washing machine blues Everything I own look like it sailed on a midnight cruise Now my baby said, “Boy, what’d you do this time?” Yeah she said, “Man, what’d you do this time?” I said, “Honey, blame them jeans — I swear it ain’t no crime” I got them blue-jean laundry blues Cheap detergent bad-news blues Spent all day foldin’ fifty shades of blue Now next time I do laundry I’m gonna read them tags Yeah next time I do laundry I’m gonna read them tags ‘Cause right now all my underwear look like denim rags I got them blue-jean laundry blues Spin-cycle heartbreak blues One pair of pants done dyed my whole life blue
