[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well, the clock struck midnight, my tires hit the gravel,
A neon sign flickered, like a beacon to unravel.
Smokey booths and coffee pots, a jukebox hummin' low,
I found my slice of heaven where the syrup rivers flow.
[Chorus]
Oh, Waffle House, you’re my saving grace,
A golden hash-brown smile on a weary traveler’s face.
Scattered, smothered, covered in love,
You’re the diamond in the rough I’m always dreaming of.
[Verse 2]
The waitress called me "darlin’," her laugh like a sweet refrain,
Scrambled eggs and buttered toast to ease the midnight pain.
Strangers swap their stories ‘neath the fluorescent glow,
A melting pot of laughter where the whole world feels like home.
[Chorus]
Oh, Waffle House, you’re my saving grace,
A golden hash-brown smile on a weary traveler’s face.
Scattered, smothered, covered in love,
You’re the diamond in the rough I’m always dreaming of.
[Bridge]
From the truckers to the dreamers, the lost and the found,
You’re the heartbeat of the highway when the sun goes down.
No judgment in your windows, just a seat and a plate,
A sanctuary of grease that never closes late.
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Oh, Waffle House, you’re my saving grace,
A golden hash-brown smile on a weary traveler’s face.
Scattered, smothered, covered in love,
You’re the diamond in the rough I’m always dreaming of.
[Outro]
