lyrics

"Pop-a-Top Lounge"

There's a middle aged woman kickin' dirt across a concrete floor
And there's a big rottweiler on a wrecker chain by the front door
You gotta bring your own liquor 'less you wanna drink beer instead
And with a little bit of luck we're gonna make a hundred bucks
And that thirty-eight special gonna miss my head

At the Pop-a-Top Lounge
You gotta show me what you're made of
You gotta hold you're ground
To get back to where you came from
I've been pickin' with the band on the wrong side of town
Every Saturday night at the Pop-a-Top Lounge

If you settle down darlin' pretty soon we're gonna play your song
And if you cool it for tonight you might consider tryin' to keep your clothes on
Because your boyfriend's the jealous type and heaven know that you are too
And when the clock strikes midnight I really wanna know why
Does every Cinderella have to turn into you?

At the Pop-a-Top Lounge
You gotta show me what you're made of
You gotta hold you're ground
To get back to where you came from
She'd been tweakin' for a weak and when she starts comin' down
You know the girl goes crazy at the Pop-A-Top Lounge

Old Gene kept a pocket pistol with him every time he played with the band
And he hand that forty-four magnum in the truck in case it got outta hand
Any fool could see that all the bad luck was takin' it's toll
But he was tryin' to change his way, livin' day to day
But he was packin' when they found him
may God rest his soul

At the Pop-a-Top Lounge
You gotta show me what you're made of
You gotta hold you're ground
To get back to where you came from
You better be ready when the deal goes down
Because the shit gets heavy at the Pop-a-Top Lounge

Yeah at the Pop-a-Top Lounge
I've been pickin' with the band on the wrong side of town
Every Satuday night down at the Pop-a-Top Lounge
