Lyrics Contact Mae - The Cowsills

Contact Mae

All along 66, wait the truck cafe’s
Ed’s diner, Jodie’s place all turn out the same
Signs saying «food and gas"gauge is on «E»
Do you think the place is clean, let’s stop and see
Board-and-Bat-shacks, pies and lunch packs
Long bar, stools and foot-rail
Near the door the juke box roars
And country-western wails
Soon you find waitress Mae, she’s middle-aged
Hair in curls and too much rouge on her sweating face
In the back dressed in white cooks cap and all
Al makes a moody face straight at the wall
Mae’s the contact smiling irritated near to outbreak
Smiling while her eyes look past unhappy and her head aches
Now we wait no one knows what mood Al’s in
If it’s good, so’s the food, let’s hope we win
