"Barrooms And Pop A Tops" lyrics - JIM ED BROWN

Soda shop children to five o'clock
Bars a giant step in just a few years
Freckle faced girls to painted up women
From chocolate cup Sundays to bottles of beer.

Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Those pick me ups now let me down
Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Bartender let's have one more round.

Sittin' and thinkin' as I'll go on drinkin'
And thoughts take me back to my childhood dreams
A bein' a superstar drivin' a fancy car
Till I found out the world's not what it seems.

Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Those pick me ups now let me down
Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Bartender let's have one more round.

For those freckle faced girls are now painted up women
And some can be found at this bar around five
I'll bet they're thinking back to some little soda shacks
And wishing those days had never passed by.

Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Those pick me ups now let me down
Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Bartender let's have one more round.

Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Those pick me ups now let me down
Barrooms and pop a tops are long way from soda shops
Bartender let's have one more round...
