Mrs. Wishy-Washy

Joy Cowley

 

Wishy, Washy Woman

In the deep dark jungle where nobody goes

(hand over brows looking all around)

Lives the wishy, washy woman and she's washin' her clothes

(move hands like using scrub board)

She says ooh (cross arms over chest)

ah (open arms down to your sides)

hoochee coochee coochee (shake upper body)

(Repeat This Verse)

Repeat Song Twice - 3rd Time, Add This Verse

And that's how the wishy, washy woman washes her clothes
