Whiskey and Eggs Lyrics[Verse 1]
Hello darling, yet it's me
I'll take the same booth if it's free
This diner feels like my only friend
Only the Lord knows how much I've spent
On cups of coffee and scrambled eggs
The empty smiles help me pretend
Like I ain't alone and I'm still holding it together
You see I've spent the whole day in bed
Thinking 'bout what I should have said
And now she's gone, she took our dog
And all my records
[Pre-Chorus]
So I think I'm gonna order something new
Got a feeling it's the type of morning
Where coffee just won't do
[Chorus]
'Cause I still smell your shampoo on the pillows on our bed
And the sight of you walking away still racing round my head
Because I thought this morning I'd be better off dead
Forget my usual, darling
Oh instead I'll have the whiskey and eggs
The whiskey and eggs
[Verse 2]
Oh my momma, she told me
There's other fish out in the sea
But these cliches and turns of phrase don't make it better
So to drown these memories
I'll take one more whiskey, make it neat
And if you see my baby, please would you just tell her
[Pre-Chorus]
That I know I can't keep waking up past noon
But I never saw the sunrise 'til I woke up next to you
[Chorus]
'Cause I still smell your shampoo on the pillows on our bed
And the sight of you walking away still racing round my head
Because I thought this morning I'd be better off dead
Forget my usual, darling
Oh instead I'll have the whiskey and eggs
Whiskey and eggs
You might also like[Verse 3]
But as the bourbon poured
You came in through them diner doors
Took your old familiar seat and started to speak
Hello darling, yes it's me
I knew just where you would be
How 'bout we switch to some coffee and talk things over?
