 JUST A BARBER POLE!
 
Candy stripes and lolipops -
This is what I am thinking,
When you walk by me you
Don't see lights a blinking.
 
I turn around and round
And I always look nice,
Each time you walk by me
You glance once or twice.
 
You check inside my barbershop
To see if people are in there,
If not, you know right then
My barber will cut your hair.
 
The barber is whistling, he is a
Happy man most everyday,
With this you sit down and smile
And want him to stay this way.
 
The barber covers your shoulders
He starts to snip here and there,
Pretty soon you look at the floor
And see your hair is everywhere!
 
You are cut, combed and brushed
With very quick precision,
Then sprayed with something nice -
Coming in was a good decision.
 
I patiently wait outside to
Watch the customers walk in,
They sit down to read a paper -
Listen to talk and give a grin.
 
I'm always here and on duty -
Counting the people toll,
I am quite proud to be
 
  JUST A BARBER POLE!
