Midtown Waitress |
| Oh momma I don’t want to sit and listen to |
| What you’re talking about |
| We’re both young and we’re going move to the city |
| Yeah we found a little place up there |
| We don’t need a lecture bout things that could go wrong |
| I’m not a child no more |
| So let me be my own |
| Let me be my own |
| So I got a job as a waitress |
| It’s not much but we’re getting by |
| Three months in we’re happy and we’re living |
| Like I told you we could be |
| Every time I call you yeah you’re crying |
| And I don’t want to do you wrong |
| But I’m not coming home |
| Let me be my own |
| Oh the things we do |
| To make it on our own |
| People say this town is fast and if you don’t hold on |
| It blows you back to where you came from |
| God is money, loves a game |
| And everyone is angry at the president |
| Protests on the streets, people shouting |
| And I’ll say that I’m angry too |
| But not enough to go |
| I’m trying to be my own |
| Hey ma, it’s been a while, yeah I’m just checking in |
| Seeing how you’ve been |
| Nothing’s wrong I’m doing fine, no that’s a lie |
| I’m not doing so well |
| Lost my job and Joey found religion |
| And he also found another girl |
| That’s not how it’s supposed to go |
| And I’m missing home |
| I’m trying to be my own but I |
| Guess I just feel a little alone |
| Oh the things we do |
| To make it on our own |
