Paper Plates and Dixie Cups (Single Song)

Written by Mark DenHartigh and Kim Cross

 “Paper Plates and Dixie Cups” is an upbeat, playful country duet about the part of every great backyard party nobody talks about—the cleanup. With sharp humor, relatable lyrics, and an instantly catchy hook, Mark and Kim turn dirty dishes, abandoned cups, and late-night cleanup into one simple new house rule: if it can’t go in a trash bag, they probably aren’t using it. Fun, clever, and made for anyone who’s ever hosted the party and regretted using the good dishes.
