"Pop A Top" lyrics

Pop A Top

Pop a top again
I just got time for one more round
Set them up my friend
Then I'll be gone
And you can let
Some other fool sit down

I'd like for you
To listen to
A joke I heard today
From a woman who
Said she was through
And calmly walked away

I'd tried to smile
And did a while
But it felt so outta place
Did you ever hear
Of a clown with teardrops
Streaming down his face?

Pop a top again
I think I'll have another round
Set them up my friend
Then I'll be gone
And you can let
Some other fool sit down

Home for me is misery
And here I'm wasting time
Cause a row of fools
On a row of stools
Is not what's on my mind

But then you see
Her leaving me
Is not what I prefer
So it's either here
Just drinking beer
Or at home remembering her

Pop a top again
I think I'll have another round
Set them up my friend
Then I'll be gone
And you can let
Some other fool sit down

Pop a top again
