Lyrics Tom Waits - Eggs And Sausage
Dm7 Dm7/C bbmag7 Dm7/A A7
improvise around D
nighthawks at the diner
of emma’s 49er , there’s a rendezvous
of strangers around the coffee urn tonight
all the gypsy hacks , the insomniacs
now the paper’s been read
now the waitress said
eggs and sausage and a side of toast
coffee and a roll , hash browns over easy
chile in a bowl with burgers and fries
what kind of pie?
in a graveyard charade , a late shift masquerade
2 for a quarter , dime for a dance
with woolworth rhinestone diamond
earrings , and a sideway’s glance
and now the register rings
and now the waitress sings
( chorus )
the classified section offered no direction
it’s a cold caffeine in a nicotine cloud
now the touch of your fingers
lingers burning in my memory
i’ve been 86ed from your scheme
i’m in a melodramatic nocturnal scene
i’m a refugee from a disconcerted affair
as the lead pipe morning falls
and the waitress calls
( chorus )
