[Slow Jazz Instrumental intro ]
[Female Verse]
Midnight hunger pang, soul's on the prowl
Waffle House sign glow, howl at the moon growl
Cold air biting hard, shivering stance
Line's long as a sermon, testin' my patience dance
[Female Verse 2]
Frying pan dreamin', hashbrowns in a trance
Checkered tile floors, rhythm in my stance
Crew inside movin' slow, still in a daze
Customers piling up, wait turnin' into a maze
[Female Chorus]
Waffle House blues, stomach ain't amused
Frozen toes hop, ain't no chair to choose
Grits on my mind, syrup in the air
But the wait's draggin' on, ain't gettin' nowhere
[Female Verse 3]
Nose pressed to the glass, fingers tap the pane
Sausage sizzle serenade, sound like sweet champagne
Ain't no fire in the grill, night takin' its toll
Waffles in my dreams, still outside in the cold
[Female Verse 4]
Other folks jostlin', shiverin' in their coats
Talkin' 'bout the biscuits, hungry folks' votes
Rebellion in our eyes, bellies full of growls
Wait turned into years, wolves howl at the vowels
[Female Chorus]
Waffle House blues, starvin' in the queue
Dreamin' about them eggs, but patience wearin' through
Flat-top fantasies, but movin' like glue
Night draggin' on, feelin' mighty blue
