Lyrics
When I was a little boy, barefooted I liked to go In the spring or summer time, there was no ice or snow When I was tired and nearly dead These are the words that mama said "Go and wash those dirty feet, before you go to bed." When I would get out of school, I could hardly wait I'd have my brogans in my hand before I'd hit the gate I'd romp and play 'till nearly dead That same 'ol line mama always said "Go and wash those dirty feet, before you go to bed." When winter's passed, and the violets bloom; And the springtime goes around My tiny feet got to itchin so to touch the cool, cool ground But I remember what mama said Those words still echo through my head "Go and wash those dirty feet, before you go to bed." I'd draw the water from the well, and grab the 'ol washpan Just a fussin' and a-fumin' like in the order of merry men But if I brushed them off instead Mama would make my bottom red "Go and wash those dirty feet, before you go to bed."
