The waitress is sliding down the wall
You can see her chest rise and fall
Her mascara running thin
And the pay phone is swinging against the wall
Don't ask her 'bout the call
You know she only trying to begin again
Ay oh ay oh...
And the manager is yelling
Something about her hair being in her face
Customer complainin'
But he really ain't got no case
And the counterqueens don't even lookup from their magazines
But oh and the waitress oh she stares straight ahead
Saying something she never said
Ay oh ay oh...
And the waitress has them backing
Has them backing against the all 'till they white in the face
She got 'em going now oh them praying
But they never know of the role they play
And the manager is quiet as she fumbles with the drawer
No he said, no he said
You'll never get away with this
No she said
You'll never get away with this
'Cause today when the door opens
The rain slants in
There's water all over the floor
Busser waves to the
Meter maid who don't waive back no more
Ay oh ay oh…
We're all searching for something
We'll all find a place to stay
Though we may have next to nothing
Oh Lord, we'll find a way
