Well the coffee is thirty weight
G7 C
And there’s grease in the beans
F
And the steak tastes like old shoe tongue
G7 C
And the waitress is mean
F
But the sign says you’re welcome here
G7 C
If you drive a truck
F
If you’re lonely and yearn for love
G7 C
Or you’re down on your luck
G7 C
And the diesel cafe lulls me away
G7 C
I spend every passing day at the diesel café
F
There’s red velvet stairs to climb
G7 C
With the rooms at the top
F
And girls there who go for love
G7 C
And they don’t ever stop
F
And the jukebox plays old love songs
G7 C
Filled with heartache and pain
F
While the sun shines all over town
G7 C
On the cafe it rains
G7 C
And the diesel cafe lulls me away
G7 C
I spend every passing day at the diesel café
F
If you’re out on that road tonight
G7 C
Full of coffee and speed
F
And those white lines have crossed your eyes
G7 C
Then you know what you need
F
Drift into my favorite place
G7 C
You might want to stay
F
Cause there’s something for everyone
G7 C
At the diesel café
G7 C
And the diesel cafe lulls me away
G7 C
I spend every passing day at the diesel cafe
