Down and Out

Biscuits and gravy

Coffee and pie

Late night in a diner

Waitress catches my eye

My shoes are soaking

Been raining all day

My car’s in a ditch

More than a mile away

I ask for a phonebook

Or the name a wrecker

I may need a cab

Then up drives a Checker.

But where shall I go

Where the h**l I don’t know

I’m halfway from where

But no way near there

The waitress then smiles

On her blouse it says Jenny

I settle the tab

And tip her a penny

She gives me a look

That could freeze a Yeti

Then spits in my coffee

When out comes cook Betty

She asks “what’s the matter?

Is this bloke giving you trouble”?

Jenny says I’m a deadbeat

She wants to be paid double.

They wrestle me to the floor

My wallet goes flyin’

Then the cabbie joins in

And I begin cryin’

My nose is all bloodied

And my crotch it feels cracked

Then I became nauseous

And the pie I up hacked.

I crawled out the door

Feeling like a real p****r

Then there on the ground

I found keys that said Checker.
