Barber Shop
Good morning, Mr. Snip, Snip, Snip
With your haircut just as short as mine
Good morning, Mr. Snip, Snip, Snip
With your haircut just as short as mine
Bare rum, lucky tiger, butch wax, cracker jacks
Shoe shine, jawbreaker, magazine racks
Hangin 'round the barber shop a side burnin' close crop
Mornin' Mr. Ferguson, what's the good word witcha?
Stayin' outta trouble like a good boy should
I see you're still cuttin' hair, I'm still cuttin' classes
Got a couple of passes to the Ring Brothers Barn Bail Circus afternoon
You lost a little 'round the middle, you're lookin' real good
Sittin' on the wagon instead of under the hood
What's the low down, Mr. Brown?
I heard your boy's leavin' town
I bought myself a struggle buggy suckers powder blue
Throw me over sports page, Cincinnati's lookin' good
Always been for Pittsburgh and I'll lay you ten to one
Pirates get the pennant and the series 'fore they're done
The hair's gettin' longer, you know the skirts gettin' shorter
And don't you know that you can get a cheaper haircut
If you wanna cross the border?
If your mama saw you smokin' bet she'd kick your ass
And put it out, you juvenile, and put it out fast
Well, if I had a million dollars, what would I do?
Probably be a barber, not a bum like you
Still got your paper route and that's just fine
Now you can pay me double 'cause you gypped me last time
Don't you know that you can keep a little circus money and spend it on a girl?
And just remember that I give the best haircuts in the whole wide world
I give the best haircuts in the whole wide world
Good morning, Mr. Snip, Snip, Snip
With your haircut just as short as mine
Good morning, Mr. Snip, Snip, Snip
With your haircut just as short
You got your haircut just as short
You got your haircut just as short as mine
Oh, man
With your haircut just as short as mine
Good morning, Mr. Snip, Snip, Snip
With your haircut just as short as mine
Bare rum, lucky tiger, butch wax, cracker jacks
Shoe shine, jawbreaker, magazine racks
Hangin 'round the barber shop a side burnin' close crop
Mornin' Mr. Ferguson, what's the good word witcha?
Stayin' outta trouble like a good boy should

You got your haircut just as short
You got your haircut just as short as mine
Oh, man
