Well Alright
I met her at the laundromat, she was washing extra hot
I said, "Don't you need a little help with that big load you got?"
She said, "No," but did a double take and then she smiled and said, "I might"
As I rolled up my sleeves, I said to myself, "Well, alright, well, alright"
I put it on automatic and she sat down on the floor
She said, "Just keep it on medium hot"
I said, "I've done this before"
Then I opened up the dryer and I set it on soft and light
She said, "Be gentle with my silk and lace," and I said, "Well, alright"
Mm-hmm-mm
Mm-hmm-mm
Mm-hmm-mm
Well, alright
Her clothes were in the basket folded down, so nice and warm
She headed for the door and I said, "I will take you home"
She said, "I just live up the street," I said, "It's a dangerous night"
Take my arm and I'll carry the basket," and she said, "Well, alright, well, alright"
The world's half full of women and the world's half full of men
And sometimes one or the other opens up to let one in
But the one I met at the laundromat that dangerous beautiful night
Said, "Yes, I do, and yes, I will," and I said, "Well, alright"
Mm-hmm-mm
Mm-hmm-mm
Doodle-doodle-do
Well, alright
I said, "Don't you need a little help with that big load you got?"
She said, "No," but did a double take and then she smiled and said, "I might"
As I rolled up my sleeves, I said to myself, "Well, alright, well, alright"
I put it on automatic and she sat down on the floor
She said, "Just keep it on medium hot"
I said, "I've done this before"
Then I opened up the dryer and I set it on soft and light
She said, "Be gentle with my silk and lace," and I said, "Well, alright"
Mm-hmm-mm
Mm-hmm-mm
Mm-hmm-mm
Well, alright
Her clothes were in the basket folded down, so nice and warm
She headed for the door and I said, "I will take you home"
She said, "I just live up the street," I said, "It's a dangerous night"
Take my arm and I'll carry the basket," and she said, "Well, alright, well, alright"
The world's half full of women and the world's half full of men
And sometimes one or the other opens up to let one in
But the one I met at the laundromat that dangerous beautiful night
Said, "Yes, I do, and yes, I will," and I said, "Well, alright"
Mm-hmm-mm
Mm-hmm-mm
Doodle-doodle-do
Well, alright
