Let Me Do the Dishes

Intro

Oh Lord, oh Lord

Help my momma see, yeah

Verse

I been prayin' for a chance to show my love

Wash away the mess and lift our spirits up

Mama, I got two good hands and a willing heart

Let me serve this house like You taught me from the start

Chorus

Let me do the dishes, Momma, let me do 'em right

Stack 'em clean and put 'em up before the night

No more plates on my bed, Lord, turn her heart around

Let me wash 'em in Your name so blessings can be found

Let me do the dishes, Momma (do the dishes)

Let me do the dishes, Momma (do the dishes)

Verse

I don't want no dirty forks where I lay my head

Mama, that ain't holy, that ain't what the Good Book said

I can scrub and rinse and dry till everything is new

Just like You forgive us, Lord, I'm askin' her to too

Chorus

Let me do the dishes, Momma, let me do 'em right

Stack 'em clean and put 'em up before the night

No more plates on my bed, Lord, turn her heart around

Let me wash 'em in Your name so blessings can be found

Let me do the dishes, Momma (do the dishes)

Let me do the dishes, Momma (do the dishes)

Bridge

Oh-oh, hallelujah

Mama, hear my prayer

Uh-huh, I got the soap and the towel

Let me show You care

Chorus

Let me do the dishes, Momma, let me do 'em right

Stack 'em clean and put 'em up before the night

No more plates on my bed, Lord, turn her heart around

Let me wash 'em in Your name so blessings can be found

Let me do the dishes, Momma (do the dishes)

Let me do the dishes, Momma (do the dishes)

Outro

Amen, amen

Let me do 'em, yeah
