Been reading them specials, extra special. Slipped a finger into my sweet tea. O' but a small stack of singles from a hard double-shift Will do terrible things to her smile. And the prettiest waitress in Memphis knows, She's only that way for a while. Well, the prettiest waitress in Memphis Spilled her heart all over me As I held her that night in a way she was right when she said, �This will all change eventually� Cause she ain�t the prettiest waitress in Memphis no more But it�s not what you�re thinking- you see The prettiest waitress in Memphis just quit And she�s leaving Memphis with me The prettiest ex-waitress in all of Memphis is Leaving Memphis with me.
