[Verse 1]
Mr. Rick turns the sign to “open”
Sun’s barely peeking through
Smells like soap and coffee
Same old sky, brand new crew
There’s Miss Jean with her Sunday dresses
And Joe with his greasy jeans
Rick says, “Mornin’, how ya doin’?”
Knows their stories in between
[Chorus]
He’s two-steppin’ through the spin cycle
Swingin’ while the dryers hum along (oh yeah)
Every load’s a little life story
Every stain’s got a right and a wrong
From first dates to little league dirt
From heartbreak to fresh-start blue
Mr. Rick at Turbo Laundry
Lovin’ every thread runnin’ through
[Verse 2]
College kids cram in on Friday
Laughin’, runnin’ late for class
Single dad folds tiny T-shirts
Tryin’ to make the moments last
Rick tosses in a clean corny joke
Gives a wink, “This one’s on me”
He says, “You leave the tough day in the basket
Let it wash out while you breathe”
[Chorus]
He’s two-steppin’ through the spin cycle
Swingin’ while the dryers hum along (hey!)
Every load’s a little life story
Every stain’s got a right and a wrong
From work boots to wedding white lace
From old scars to somethin’ new
Mr. Rick at Turbo Laundry
Lovin’ every thread runnin’ through
[Bridge]
Some folks dream of leavin’ town
Chasin’ some far-off star
Rick just hums a soft old melody
Right where his people are
‘Cause he’s rich in every handshake
Paid in every “thank you, friend”
In a world that’s always rushin’
He lets the cycle gently end
[Chorus]
Still two-steppin’ through the spin cycle
Swingin’ while the dryers hum along (oh yeah)
Every load’s a little life story
Every stain’s got a right and a wrong
From first cries to last goodbyes
From worn-out to bright brand-new
Mr. Rick at Turbo Laundry
Lovin’ every thread runnin’ through
Yeah, Mr. Rick at Turbo Laundry
Lovin’ every one of us too
