Black Socks

Song Lyrics & Words

Black socks, they never get dirty
the longer you wear em the blacker they get

Sometimes I think I should change em but something keeps telling me
Oh no not yet ... not yet

Alternative Lyrics & Words

Alternative version

Black socks, they never get dirty.
The longer you wear 'em, the stiffer they get.

Sometimes, I think of the laundry,
But something inside me says "Don't send them yet"

Another version

Black socks they never get dirty,
the longer you wear them the stronger they get

Sometimes I think I should launder them
Something keeps telling me do it right right now!

Yet another version

Black socks, they never get dirty.
The longer you wear them, the blacker they get.
Sometimes I think of the laundry;
But something keeps telling me don't wash them yet not yet, not yet, not yet...

One more

Black socks they never get dirty
the longer you were them the stronger they get
Sometimes I think I should wash them
but something keeps telling me Not yet not yet not yet
