is there any way to preserve a lock on a table that gets dropped?

i have a situation where it would be nice to have a select wait on a
lock on a table that gets dropped but almost immediately recreated, but,
at the moment, the select generates an error as soon as the table is
dropped if the two actions happen close enough in time.
