  • Rose Royce - Car Wash
    Lyrics:
    Ooh, ooh
    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 a Indian Chief
    (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'll
    (Car wash, girl)
    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 ya act the fool
    At the car wash
    Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Talkin' about the car wash, girl
    Come on, ya'll and sing it for me
    (Car wash)
    Oooh, oooh, oooh
    (Car wash, girl)
    (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
    (Hey, get your car washed today)
    Fill up and you don't have to pay
    Come on and give us a play
    (Do the wash, right away)
    (Car wash)
    Talkin' 'bout the car wash
    Car wash, girl
    Come on, ya'll, let's sing it with me
    (Car wash)
    Sing it with feelin', ya'll
    (Car wash, girl)
    Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    (Car wash)
    Never seem to stop comin'
    What'd I say
    Keep those rags and machines hummin'

    This is the ORIGINAL Version and it was #1 on the Pop & Soul Chart 35 years ago and still a cult favorite
    God Bless Rose Royce for a job well done
    This song was out when All in the Family, Sanford & Son, The Jeffersons, One Day at a Time, Good Times, What's Happening!!, Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley, Starsky & Hutch, The Original Hawaii Five-O, The Six Million Dollar Man, Police Woman & Charlie's Angels were still on the air and Chuck Woolery & Susan Stafford were spinning the Wheel of Fortune

    so our marching band is going to Philadelphia for the Dunkin Donuts Thanksgiving Parade, and as an attempt to raise money, we threw "The Largest Car wash in Glynn County" today, and we ended up raising over $4,000!!! (we had pre sold tickets for $5. We also sold snow cones for $2 if I remember correctly. We got donated a bouncy house for little kids to jump on.) it lasted a total of 5hr 10-20min. anyway, we had a Playlist out there, and this was one of the songs

    "Car Wash" is my favourite comedy movie of all time, it has a really funny story line,, and a great Funky sound track, that epitomises the feel good factor of the mid 1970's.
    I visited Los Angeles way back in 1981, and the movie brings back to me, many happy
    memories of that "Feel Good" place in time, that I will NEVER forget. I saw people
    out there who looked just like those from that original movie, and of course, the
    weather was to die for! and I live in the gloomy UK.

    When I was 1 in 1977 I heard this song when my step dad was washing his truck at a Car Wash. He washed the truck after gassing it up for 40 cents a gallon( gas war) . Aah the memories. That ol' car wash is gone now and so are the days of tie dyed shirts,bell bottom pants and the puka shells. Lava lamp with the permanent glob in the bottom. platform shoes. Boy I'm getting old.

    A #1 hit for Rose Royce on the Rhythm & Blues charts. It was the 382nd #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. It also hit #1 on the Top 40 charts and in Canada. It also charted in other countries, as well. It was the last #1 R&B song of 1976 and first of 1977. What will the R&B scene be like in this new year? Stay tuned.
