Story Behind The Song
I was driving a car when I saw a woman leaving one bar and go into another. I thought she is bar hopping. then I am afraid I just started rhyming with hopping and came up with mopping. I'm tired of floor mopping, going go a bar hopping aint going to stay home any more. Cause your out there playing around while I'm scrubbing the kitchen floor.

Lyrics
I'm Tire of Floor Mopping.
Penelope Torribio
I'm tired of floor mopping
going to go a bar hopping
aint gonna stay home anymore,
cause you're out their playing around
while I'm mopping the kitchen floor.
I aint seen much of the night life,
I've stayed home being a good wife,
but honey I'm tired of you not coming home nights
and I aint staying home anymore.
I'm tired of floor mopping
going to go a bar hopping
aint gonna stay home anymore,
cause you're out their playing around
while I'm mopping the kitchen floor.
Goinb dress up in my finery,
go out to a bar or three
and I'll find someone to talk with me
and I won't be lonesome no more.
I'm getting up off of my all fours
and I'm gonna be out there on the dance floor
and I won't be lonesome no more,
I aint staying home any more.
I'm tired of floor mopping
going to go a bar hopping
aint gonna stay home anymore,
cause you're out their playing around
while I'm mopping the kitchen floor.
