Just an old man in a bush town in an old barbers shop
Recalling the days of the old razor strop
When he solved all you problem while clipping you hair
Then he'd flip you right back in his beautiful chair
Just a few slaps of leather he'd shave you off clean
Through you foamy white face, his cut-throat was keen
Then it was all over with a splash and a sting
You were back on the street feeling fit for the king
He said “Long hairs and skin heads have ruined this game”
“Remember the days when we all looked the same”
“That mug call Ringo and his mates are to blame”
“And I guess I'm wasting my breath on you sonny.”
Well he followed the horses as part of the job
If you backed all his tips you might make a few bob
With pictures of Phar Lap all over the wall
And of course Donald Bradman the greatest of all
He said “Long hairs and skin heads have ruined this game”
“Remember the days when we all looked the same”
“That mug call Ringo and his mates are to blame”
And I guess I'm wasting my breath on you sonny.”
“Young people these days, don't have the pride
Grooming and manners have taken a slide”
Well the world to the old man had gone a bit strange
So I bought a few PKs and tipped him the change
He said “Long hairs and skin heads have ruined this game”
“Remember the days when we all looked the same”
“That fella call Ringo and his mates are to blame”
And I guess I'm wasting my breath on you sonny.”
He said “Long hairs and skin heads have ruined this game”
“Remember the days when we all looked the same”
“That fella call Ringo and his mates are to blame”
And I guess I'm wasting my breath on you sonny.”
