Love Over Easy
(C)2004 Ken Cayea (Neil Cotton)
She worked the Lazy Day Diner as I poured into my booth
She saw lipstick on my collar and could smell the vermouth
She banged a cup of coffee on the table and said
I've had a belly full of your empty bed
So here's a little something I'm stewing on just for you
It was Love Over Easy in a greasy spoon
chorus
It was Love Over Easy in a greasy spoon
A face full of apron hit me half past noon
Her wedding band went ping off the window pane
I knew I was toast and goin' down in flames
As she served a heapin' helpin' of Hold The Lies
Love Over Easy with trouble on the side
Now I always heard a guilty man's very best defense
Was to come out a swingin' and hopin' he'd make sense
But before I could butter up a How Dare You!
She hit me with the bill and signed it Babe We're Through
Said better get a lawyer cause I'm comin after you
It was Love Over Easy in a greasy spoon
It was Love Over Easy in a greasy spoon
A face full of apron hit me half past noon
Her wedding band went ping off the window pane
I knew I was toast and goin' down in flames
As she served a heapin' helpin' of Hold The Lies
Love Over Easy with trouble on the side
Bridge
Then I scrambled out an apology
My half baked heartache had her believin' me
My goose was cooked when I saw a woman winkin'
I winked on back before my mind was thinkin'
It was Love Over Easy in a greasy spoon
A face full of apron hit me half past noon
Her wedding band went ping off the window pane
I knew I was toast and goin' down in flames
As she served a heapin' helpin' of Hold The Lies
Love Over Easy with trouble on the side
