Wait on Me (Waitress No. 3)

I probably fell in love with at least 2 waitresses a month for the first 50 or so years of my life. But none more than Heidi Schmidt. The true story of how we met.

When we met she was a waitress
Over at the Do Drop Inn
I dropped in she bummed me out
Talking about her boyfriend
She said here are your french fries
I said forget about that guy
She grinned and said I just might
If you can catch my eye

We walked out on the patio
We were gazing at the stars
When a truck full of drunk rednecks
Lost control and smashed my car
They took off in a full run
Which is what I should have done
But I’m irresponsible
And she seemed hella fun

Chorus:
All my friends said
She’s sweet on you
She gave me extra french fries
And lots of free beer too
Then she called me a cab
Me and my car were smashed
I said are you working tomorrow
If you are I’m coming back
Cause you’re the finest waitress I have seen all week
And I have loved a waitress
It’s a waitress that I seek Won’t you please wait on me
Waitress number three

I woke up the next afternoon
With a waitress on my brain
The worst hangover on record
And a certain hunger pain
I thumbed back to the diner
With a master plan to find her
Ask her if she’d be my girl
Maybe something kinder

Chorus:
All my friends said
She’s sweet on you
She gave me extra french fries
And lots of free beer too
Then she called me a cab
Me and my car were smashed
I said are you working tomorrow
If you are I’m coming back
Cause you’re the finest waitress
I have seen all week
And I have loved a waitress
It’s a waitress that I seek
Won’t you please wait on me
Waitress number three

Bridge:
The folks at the Do Drop Inn
Have the best restaurant in town
All those pretty waitresses
It’s a bird’s nest on the ground

Chorus:
All my friends said
She’s sweet on you
She gave me extra french fries
And lots of free beer too
Then she called me a cab
Me and my car were smashed
I said are you working tomorrow
If you are I’m coming back
Cause you’re the finest waitress
I have seen all week
And I have loved a waitress
It’s a waitress that I seek
Won’t you please wait on me
Waitress number three
