[G][Bb][G]
[Em][G]
[Bb][G]

[Verse 1]
Good morning [G]Mister,
snip snip [Bb]snip
With your [G]hair cut just as short as mine
Good morning [Em]Mister, [G]snip snip [Bb]snip
With your [G]hair cut just as short [C]as mine

[Verse 2]
[G]Bay rum[Gm], Luc[Bb]ky Tiger, but[Gm]ch wax,
[Bb]crac[Ab]kerjacks
[G]Shoe shine, jaw breaker,
magazine [D]rack[Bb]s[Gm][G][Ab]
[Bb]Hangin' round the barber [D]shop,
a side- [Dm]burnin' [F]close [G]crop
Mornin' [Em]Mr. [G]Furg[Em]eson[Bb], what's
[Gm]the good [G]word with ya?
Stayin' out of trouble like a
good [Em]boy s[G]hould[C][G][Em]
[Eb]I see [G]you're still cuttin' hair,
I'm still cuttin' classes
I got a couple passes to the Ringle Bros. Barn
Bail circus afternoon
[Em][G][Em]

[Verse 3]
[G]
You lost a little round the middle
and you're lookin' real good
Sittin' on the wagon â??stead of
under the hood
[Gm]What's the [G]low- down, Mr. Brown,
I heard your boy's leavin' town?
I bought myself [Gm]a Struggle Buggy,
[G]sucker's powder [Em]blue[G][Bb][G]
[Gm][G][Bb]
Throw me over th' sports page,
[G]Cincinnati lookin' goo[D]d[Dm]
[D]I alway[G]s been for Pit[C]tsburgh,

[D]The hai[C]r's gettin' lon[C#dim]ger ,[A]

[D]And don[C]'t you kno[Bb]w that you[C] can get[G] a
cheaper [Em]haircut if you [A]want [D]to cross the border
If your [G]mama saw you smokin',
well she'd [C]kick [G]your [F]ass[Em]
Now you [D]put it [Em]out, you [F]juven[G]ile,
and put it [Em]out f[G]ast[Em][G]
[Bb]Well, if I had a[G] million dollars,
what would I do?
I'd probably [Em]be a ba[G]rber,
not a bum like [Bb]you
[Gm]Still [G]got your paper route,
now that's just [Em]fine[G][Em][G][Bb]
And you can [Gm]pay [G]me double,

[Interlude 1]
â??cause you gypped me last time

And [Gm]don't you [G]know that [Em]you can

circus [C]money [G]and spend it on a [Em]girl[G]
And just remember that I give the [Em]be
