[Part I]
[Verse 1]
It was an early morning barroom and the place just opened up
And the little man come in so fast and started at his cups
And the broad who served the whisky
She was a big old friendly girl
And she tried to fight her empty nights by smilin' at the world
And she said, "Hey Bub, it's been awhile since you been around
Where the hell you been hidin', and why you look so down?"
But the little man just sat there like he'd never heard a sound
[Pre-Chorus]
The waitress, she gave out with a cough
And acting not the least put off
She spoke once again
[Chorus]
She said, "I don't wanna bother you
Consider it's understood
I know I'm not no beauty queen
But I sure can listen good"
[Post-Chorus]
And the little man took his drink in his hand
And he raised it to his lips
He took a couple of sips
And he told the waitress this story
