Waitress

In a side street cafe down on front street of some lonely city
There's a waitress that's tired of hearin' truck drivers tellin' her she's pretty
She'll laugh at your jokes and she'll listen to your stories patiently
Cause she learned to be a waitress from sittin' home waitin' on me
She's still got love to give but she's waitin' for the right man to take it
She might love to hear your sweet lies but her heart's too wise for you to break it
She's got dreams we made in Texas now she's all alone in Tennessee
Cause she learned to be a waitress from sittin' home waitin' on me
When she's feelin' lonely she'll serve you your coffee with a smile
And her coffee tastes better cause she serves it with that married woman style
She's got much more to give and last chance is a gettin' what's she's after
She's learned how to settle down from workin' hard in a world that's gettin' faster
She's waitin' for a drink to hurry up and turn into reality
Cause she learned to be a waitress from sittin' home waitin' on me
Yes she learned to be a waitress from sittin' home waitin' on me
