DINER TALK

DINER TALK DINER CHAT
ONION RINGS OR FRIES WITH THAT?
COUNTER-CULTURE, 3 AM
NECKIN’ IN THE BACK BOOTH
RUTH AND THE TATTOOED BUSBOY, GUS
WHILE NICKY IN THE KITCHEN
FLIPS CHEESEBURGERS DELUXE
THOSE TRUCK STOP DINER WALLS
HAVE SEEN IT ALL ANYWHERE USA
WHAT WOULD THAT DINER SAY? IF WE COULD HEAR THAT..

DINER TALK, DINER CHAT
WHAT’LL IT BE, SWEET TEA? A MATCH?
HEY LET’S GET HITCHED, LET’S CALL IT QUITS
LET’S CHIP IN FOR THE TIP
WHIP ME UP A CHOCOLATE SHAKE, FLO
THEN I GOTTA GO
DON’TCHA KNOW YOU GOTTA BEAUTIFUL MIND?
OH THE LINES A DINER HEARS THROUGH THE YEARS
COULD FILL A MILLION COFFEE URNS
WHAT DO YOU THINK WE’D LEARN
IF WE COULD HEAR THAT..

DINER TELL IT’S TALE
I’VE GOT A SCRIPT FOR SALE
COMEDY, DRAMA, SLAPSTICK, FARCE
A CAST OF NO NAME STARS
THAT DINER TALK IS CHEAP
BUT RICH IN HISTORY
LEND ME YOUR EAR…AND HEAR A LITTLE..

DINER TALK, DINER CHAT
KISS MY GRITS, HEY SLICK, NICE HAT!
LAST CHANCE FOR LOVE TIL THE BREAKFAST RUSH
WHAT I WANT AIN’T ON THE MENU
CAN YOU TOAST MY BUNS?
WHY SURELY, HON, THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT
THAT OPEN ALL NIGHT DINER’S PART
OF AMERICA’S HEART
I’M HOPING IT’S HERE TO STAY..
OH WHAT WOULD THAT DINER SAY…?
