Nighthawks at the diner of Emma's Forty-Niner | |
There's a rendezvous of strangers around the coffee urn tonight | |
All the gypsy hacks and the insomniacs | |
Now the paper's been read, now the waitress said | |
'Eggs and sausage and a side of toast | |
Coffee and a roll, hash browns over easy | |
Chile in a bowl with burgers and fries | |
What kind of pie? Yeah...' | |
It's a graveyard charade, it's a late shift masquerade | |
And it's two for a quarter, dime for a dance | |
Woolworth's rhinestone diamond earrings and a sideways glance | |
Now the register rings, now the waitress sings | |
Eggs and sausage and a side of toast | |
Coffee and a roll, hash browns over easy | |
Chile in a bowl with burgers and fries | |
What kind of pie? Yeah | |
Now well, the classified section offers no direction | |
It's a cold caffeine in a nicotine cloud | |
Now the touch of your fingers lingers burning in my memory | |
I've been eighty-sixed from your scheme | |
Now I'm in a melodramatic nocturnal scene | |
Now I'm a refugee from a disconcerted affair | |
Now the lead pipe morning falls, now the waitress calls | |
'Eggs and sausage, another side of toast | |
Coffee and a roll, hash browns over easy | |
Chile in a bowl with burgers and fries | |
Now what kind of pie?' | |
À la mode if you will | |
Just come in and join the crowd | |
Had some time to kill, yeah | |
You see, I just come in to join the crowd | |
Had some time to kill | |
Just come in to join the crowd | |
Cause I had some time to kill |
