Cory Branan - The Prettiest Waitress In Memphis lyrics

Well, there is only one reason I stop in this place Let me stress that it ain't the cuisine The eggs are all runny the hasbrowns smell funny and The coffee taste like gasoline But there goes the one thing that I've been looking forward to For the last 600 miles In a slow motion pan with 8 beers in each hand What's here of heaven in her smile She is the prettiest waitress in memphis And I think she's flirting with me Readin' them specials - extra special She slipped her finger into my sweet tea O' but a small stack of singles from a hard double-shift Will do terrible things to a smile And the prettiest waitress in Memphis knows She's only that way for a while Somehow she remembered my name thought its been Several months since i pa**ed through this way She said she's lived here all her twenty three years I said I'd be here for a day Ordered the pecan pie and in the wink of eye Got a slice as big as my head And her name and her number on a sweet-n-low package Is the best poem that I've ever read She is the prettiest waitress in Memphis And I think she's flirting with me Readin' them specials - extra special She slipped her finger into my sweet tea O' but a small stack of singles from a hard double-shift Will do terrible things to a smile And the prettiest waitress in Memphis knows She's only that way for a while Well the prettiest waitress in Memphis Spilled her heart all over me As I held her that night in a way she was right when she said "This will all change eventually." Cause she ain't the prettiest waitress in Memphis no more But it's not what you're thinking- you see The prettiest waitress in Memphis just quit\ And she's leavin Memphis with me The prettiest ex-waitress in all of memphis Is leaving Memphis with me
