Floppy Top Bop

According to one of our reliable sources, "There was no Dirty Bra Bop to my knowledge. One summer when we were living at the ranch, maybe '57 or '58, tube tops were all the rage. Tube tops were strapless bandeaus made of stretchy knit fabric. One day, after lunch, we were all in the kitchen doing dishes and cleaning up. Connie, wearing a tube top, was dancing while mopping the floor."

That inspired our reliable source back then to instantaneously create a song called, "Floppy Top Bop." BUT... Alas! Out of numerous verses, our source could only remember one line of that song that went something like this: You ought to see my sister, C.J., mop, doin' the floppy top bop.'"

If you happen to see Connie Jean (CJ) on the streets of northwest Oklahoma, you might see if she remembers the rest of that song, "Floppy Top Bop." This writer would ask her personally, but the last time I talked to Connie was in the Woods County courthouse... AND... she swung her arm around towards this NW Okie's head and assaulted me when I tried to console her and calm her down. This NW Okie never pressed charges for that assault -- I haven't talked to CJ since! Do you blame me? ;-)
