Eat at Joe's Lyrics

I go to work from ten thirty,
Until six a.m.
Raking up the dimes and quarters,
Slinging eggs and ham.
Scrambled, poached, or over easy.
Coffee, black and strong.
Jukebox of scratchy records:
I play 'em all night long.

Eternal blue neon, we never close,
When the world is asleep,
Darling, come take a seat:
You can always eat at Joe's.
(Eat at Joe's.)

Here comes old Frank Taylor,
Smelling like old gin.
Guess his wife couldn't get him sober,
It's up to me again.
Here's a hot top on your coffee,
Honey, you're a mess.
I ain't your wife, I ain't your momma,
But I'll do, I guess.

Eternal blue neon, we never close,
When the world is asleep,
Darling, come take a seat:
You can always eat at Joe's.
(Eat at Joe's.)

Hello prince charming,
Where are you dear?
When will you come in,
And order biscuits here.

Truck drivers, musicians,
With no place to go.
I can be your domestic goddess,
For an hour or so.

Eternal blue neon, we never close,
When the world is asleep,
Darling, come take a seat:
You can always eat at Joe's.
(Eat at Joe's.)

I go to work from....
Black coffee, strong.
(Eat at Joe's)
Ordering.
