The Waitress
She was tall and always tired Works the late shift at the all night diner The years can fly by you in a place like this Waiting for a perfect man and a perfect kiss
Coffee cups, eggs and sausage Steady hands, friendly smiles hold her hostage She traded her 20?s for a job that never promised more Her dreams fell asleep on the top bunk and woke up on the floor
There ain't no good fight There ain't no hero There ain't no bad man out to get you There's just a tough job That will swallow you in the darkness of another day
She grew up in the West She grew up in the country Great plaines, long trains, horses and hay She thought she was rich cause she had everything she could need Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Till the storm of divorce came and all was lost to legal fees
She moved to the city before she turned 25 Never looked back never wondered what she's lost She got a job, learned to work, tried her damndest to be happy But she know's she'll never feel what's it's like to be free enough to leave
There ain't no good fight There ain't no hero There ain't no bad man out to get you There's just a tough job That will swallow you in the darkness of another day
There's no more cowboys No more bonfires No more stars up in her sky There's just the streetlights Casting shadows into the darkness of another day
