Phases and Stages (Theme) / Washing the Dishes Songtext
von Willie Nelson

Phases and stages
Circles and cycles
And scenes that we′ve all seen before
Let me tell you some more


Washing the dishes
Scrubbing the floors
Caring for someone who don't care anymore
Learning to hate all the things that she once loved to do
Like washing his shirts
and never complaining
except of red stains on the collars
Ironin′ and cryin'
Cryin' and ironin′
Caring for someone who don′t care anymore
Someday she'll just walk away
