Barber Shop
I miss the days and those lazy old ways of the Barber Shop
When Dads got away and they all had their say at the Barber Shop
When Curly was bald as old Rack’em Red’s favorite cue ball,
Yeah, I miss the days and those lazy old ways of the Barber Shop
Uuuumm....The Barber Shop,
Aww, The Barber Shop
It was first come, first serve for Old Herb’s steady nerve at the Barber Shop
Old Herb had the cash, two inch cigarette ash, at the Barber shop
Drysdale brought the heat and smooth Sandy the curve at the Barber Shop
Yeah, I miss the days and those lazy old ways of the Barber Shop
Life was simple back then...from the naive young eyes of a compliant child
No serious worries, no lies to deny,
life was simple way back when, uuuuuuuuhhhhhhh
Move the Dodgers to Queens or to Chavez Ravine at the Barber Shop
‘The O’Malley’s’ lost his mind or he’s ahead of his time at the Barber Shop
Stan the Man’s turned the guard and the Mick’s just gone yard at the Barber Shop
We’ve got the Cards and the Yanks and ‘let’s play two’ Banks at the Barber Shop
Uuuumm....The Barber Shop,
Aww, The Barber Shop
Our Momma’s all knew that their men were true blue at the Barber Shop
Thru the week worked real hard, Saturday mowed the yard, then the Barber Shop
Each man knew his place and the meaning of Grace to us all
Yeah, I miss the days and those lazy ole ways of the Barber Shop
JFK WAS THE PRINCE, BUT CHRIST WAS STILL KING…in America
Some of us got our burrs, lucky ones got their flat-tops,
We all called our Daddy’s “Sir”, That’s just how it was at the Barber Shop…
Aw, gone are the days…of my Father’s ways, yeah,
gone are the days but I miss those days,
Yeah, simple old ways, lazy old days of the Barber Shop…
I can still smell those old clippers, cigarette smoke, Teaberry Gum.
