Sittin' in an all nite cafe in a booth back in the corner

Making paper wads from napkins throwing toothpicks on the floor

Got a problem I can't solve it gonna sit here till I figure out

The reason why my baby doesn't love me anymore

Well it can't be another woman cause I never looked at any one

Not since I've been knowing her and that's a long long time

Drank so many cups of coffee bet you that I'll get an ulcer

Sittin' in this all nite cafe with my baby on my mind

[ steel ]

Sittin' in an all nite cafe listening to the jukebox playing

Overhead the waitress saying I wonder why he don't go home

Guess my baby's out with someone laughing dancing and romancing

And I'll bet she never thinks about me sittin' here alone

Well it can't be another woman...
