Lyrics

TIP YOUR WAITRESS

Tip your waitress
She works hard and they don't pay her enough
She's been on her feet for hours
She had to come in early 'cause the new girl called in sick
She's got too many tables and they all want service quick
But she still keeps on smiling

Tip your waitress
She's done her best to make you feel right at home
She lit all those pretty candles
Brought you rolls and butter, water with no ice
Told you all the specials, and the salad dressings twice
Then stood there while you decided
Between the raspberry vinagrette, the blue and the creamy Italian

But she's more than just a notepad with a nice pair of legs
She's got a great big heart and a real smart head
So full of hopes and dreams it ain't funny
All she needs is the money to make them come true
So tip your waitress ? it's the right thing to do

Tip your waitress
She's saving up to go back to school
To be a veterinarian
She's always loved animals, has 2 cats named Jack and Jill
A greyhound she adopted to save from being killed
and a parakeet named Popeye

They're all waiting
For their mom to come home from work
Then it's dinner and playtime
It's a tiny apartment but it's all she can afford
She'd love an old Victorian with a great big yard
Where her wild things can all run free
But for now she wants to know if you'd like dessert and coffee

She's more than just a notepad with a nice pair of legs
She's got a great big heart and a real smart head
So full of hopes and dreams it ain't funny
All she needs is the money to make them come true
So tip your waitress ? it's the right thing
Tip your waitress ? it's the right thing to do
