terry allen & the panhandle mystery band - the night cafe lyrics

[verse 1]
yeah, the truck driving man, he gonna understand when he pulls in the night café
he gonna walk right in where there too many men wanting hamburgers right away
and he finally finds a booth, he calls to waitress ruth, he says, “give me the special of day” (hot beef)
yeah, but ruth gets goosed at the opposite booth and she runs off the other way
but he don’t care ’cause that old

[chorus]
jukebox is playing his love song and the coffee is hot in the cup
and there’s a light in the night that spells café where the big trucks are all pulling up

[verse 2]
yeah, the truck driving man, he got a mouth full of sin, but his heart looks the other way
and though they hot+eye ruth, well, they know the truth is sweet gal down the way
and so they cuss and they grin, they fill their thermos again, and they listen to the music play
you got a heavy load waiting out on the road and a home still two days away
but they can wait for it ’cause that old
[chorus]
jukebox is playing their love song and the coffee is hot in the cup
and there’s a light in the night that spells café where the big trucks are all pulling up

[verse 3]
yeah, the truck driving man, he gonna understand when he leaves that night café
he gonna dance a jig out beside his rig just to shake the cold away
he gonna slam the door and let the diesel roar down the dark highway
but he has no fears while he’s shifting gears to that next night café
’cause he knows glowing there like a diamond in the tarpit is that old

[chorus]
jukebox is playing his love song and the coffee is hot in the cup
and there’s a light in the night that spells café where the big trucks are all pulling up
