Lyrics
You gotta separate your wash
Don?t Give your whites the blues
And if you mix them with some reds
You?ll have pink socks in those shoes
So when the washer starts to slosh
Did you separate your wash
You know you got to read the tags
All clothes have them when they?re new
And if you follow the directions
Keep your colors bright and true
You want to move up another notch
You got to separate your wash
Every days another thing
Every time?s another test
First you have to do your delicates
And then your permanent press
So when the washer starts to slosh
Did you separate your wash
So don?t say you didn?t know
Don?t want to hear no Oh my gosh
Don?t want to hang around with no one
That doesn?t separate their wash
