The Waitress


She was the new girl in town
And she held the sign from the window in her hand
She needed a job and he needed the work
So he thought he'd see what she had

Now the work was hard but she was tough
Some other girls quit but she couldn't get enough
I watched her from the corner of my eye
And before I realized, I had fallen for her

The night I fell for a waitress
Is something I don't understand
I just knew it when I looked in her eyes
As I took my drink from her hand

I watched her walking across the floor
From my spot near the front door
Until the last call for alcohol came in
And I've been back every night since then

I don't know what's going on
In this mixed up head of mine
But I know this girl is special
And I'm working on a way to make her mine

The night I fell for a waitress
Is something I don't understand
I just knew it when I looked in her eyes
As I took my drink from her hand
