Night Cafe
Lyricist:Terry Allen
Yeah, the truck drivin' man He gonna understand When he pulls into the night cafe He gonna walk right in
Where there's too many men Wantin' hamburgers right away When he finally finds a booth He calls to waitress Ruth, he says 'Gimme the special, ah, the day', hot beef
Yeah, but Ruth gets goosed At the opposite booth An' she runs off the other way But he don't care â€~cause
That old jukebox is playing his love song An the coffee is hot in the cup And there's a light in the night that spells cafe Where the big trucks are all pullin' up
Yeah, truck drivin' man He got a mouth full of sin But his heart looks the other way An though they hot-eye Ruth Well, they know the truth is
Sweet gal down the way So they cuss an' they grin They fill their thermos again And they listen to the music play Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
They got a heavy load Waitin' out on the road An' a home still two days away But they can wait for it â€~cause
That old jukebox is playing his love song An the coffee is hot in the cup And there's a light in the night that spells cafe Where the big trucks are all pullin' up
Yeah, the truck drivin' man He gonna understand When he leaves that night cafe He gonna dance a jig out beside his rig
Just to shake the cold away He gonna slam the door An' let the diesel roar Down the dark highway
But he has no fears While he's shiftin' gears To that next night cafe â€~Cause he knows glowin' there Like a diamond in the tar pit
That old jukebox is playing his love song An the coffee is hot in the cup And there's a light in the night that spells cafe Where the big trucks are all pullin' up
