The Diner Song Lyrics by Crown Jewels

Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
There’s so much life going on at the diner ‘cross the street
Three dozen eggs piled up waiting to be beat
“Coffee black…whiskey down…split pea soup--no rocks”
And I know all the lingo ‘cause I go there a lot

I wish I had me a real job like waiting tables
No more vans and travelling bands, I need something stable
I wish I had me a real job at the diner across the street
Where I could meet a late night girl who doesn’t eat meat

I get so sick of whiskey swilling chicks at all the clubs
But I take them out after the show all scrambled up
They’re all impressed…think i’m a star…i know the waiters by name
But in my mind I’ve cleaned the plates and pumped a lot of pain

I wish i had me a real job like waiting tables
No more bands and travelling, man, I want something stable
I wish I had me a real job at the diner across the street
Maybe I’d meet a late night girl who likes me
There’s so much life going on at the diner ‘cross the street   Three dozen eggs piled up waiting to be beat   “Coffee black…whiskey down…split pea soup--no rocks”   And I know all the lingo ‘cause I go there a lot      I wish I had me a real job like waiting tables   No more vans and travelling bands, I need something stable   I wish I had me a real job at the diner across the street   Where I could meet a late night girl who doesn’t eat meat      I get so sick of whiskey swilling chicks at all the clubs   But I take them out after the show all scrambled up   They’re all impressed…think i’m a star…i know the waiters by name   But in my mind I’ve cleaned the plates and pumped a lot of pain      I wish i had me a real job like waiting tables   No more bands and travelling, man, I want something stable   I wish I had me a real job at the diner across the street   Maybe I’d meet a late night girl who likes me
