Verse:
D			
You might not ever get rich 
But let me tell ya it's better than diggin' a ditch 
There ain't no tellin' who you might meet 
A movie star or maybe even an Indian chief 

Chorus:
D (w/ strings)
(Workin') 
At the car wash 
Workin' at the car wash, girl 
Come on and sing it with me 
(Car wash) 
Sing it with the feelin' ya'all 
(Car wash, girl) 

Ooh! 

D
Some of the work gets kinda hard 
This ain't no place to be if you planned on bein' a star 
Let me tell you it's always cool 
And the boss don't mind sometimes if you act the fool 

Chorus:
D (w/ strings)
At the car wash 
Whoa whoa whoa whoa 
Talkin' about the car wash, girl 
Come on, ya'all and sing it for me 
(Car wash) 
Oooh oooh oooh 
(Car wash, girl) 

Verse:
D
(Work and work) 
Well, those cars never seem to stop coming 
(Work and work) 
Keep those rags and machines humming 
(Work and work) 
My fingers to the bone 
(Work) 
Can't wait till it's time to go home (?) 

Bridge:
Em D Cmaj 7
          (Hey, get your car washed today) 
Em D Cmaj7
           Fill up and you don't have to pay 
Em D Cmaj7
           Come on and give us a play 
G		A
(Do the wash, right away) 

Chorus:
D (w/ strings)
(The car wash) 
Talkin' 'bout the car wash 
Car wash, girl 
Come on, ya'all, let's sing it with me 
(Car wash) 
Sing it with feelin', ya'all 
(Car wash, girl) 

Chorus:

D (w/ strings)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa 
(Car wash) 
Never seem to stop comin' 
What'd I say 
Keep those rags and machines hummin' 
(Car wash) 
Let me tell you, it's always cool . . . 

(Repeat chorus and fade)
