Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepin' up the floor
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
'Til there ain't no more

Dusty, dusty, dusty
Dusty, dusty, dusty
Dusty, dusty, dusty
Dustin' up the shelf
Dusty, dusty, dusty
Dusty, dusty, dusty
Dusty, dusty, dusty
Doin' it my self

Putty, putty, putty
Putty, putty, putty
Putty, putty, putty
Puttin' things away
Putty, putty, putty
Putty, putty, putty
Putty, putty, putty
Then go out and play

Moppy, moppy, moppy
Moppy, moppy, moppy
Moppy, moppy, moppy
Moppin' up the room
Moppy, moppy, moppy
Moppy, moppy, moppy
Moppy, moppy, moppy
Foom! Foom! Foom

Cleany, cleany, cleany
Cleany, cleany, cleany
Cleany, cleany, cleany
Clean the window panes
Cleany, cleany, cleany
Cleany, cleany, cleany
Cleany, cleany, cleany
'Til you see through again

Throwy, throwy, throwy
Throwy, throwy, throwy
Throwy, throwy, throwy
Throwin' things away
Throwy, throwy, throwy
Throwy, throwy, throwy
Throwy, throwy, throwy
Far away

Makey, makey, makey
Makey, makey, makey
Makey, makey, makey
Makin' up the bed
Makey, makey, makey
Makey, makey, makey
Makey, makey, makey
That's what I said

Shakey, shakey, shakey
Shakey, shakey, shakey
Shakey, shakey, shakey
Shakin' out the sheet
Shakey, shakey, shakey
Shakey, shakey, shakey
Shakey, shakey, shakey
'Til the two ends meet

Washy, washy, washy
Washy, washy, washy
Washy, washy, washy
Washin' up the dishes
Washy, washy, washy
Washy, washy, washy
Washy, washy, washy
And the soap suds squishes

Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepin' up the floor
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
Sweepy, sweepy, sweepy
'Til there ain't no more
