Oh this is so me.... This Lady

This Lady by Dave Schipper © 2007 Rose Riversongs

Dressed all in black for a job in the city
She’s a lady who knows she’s a carved beauty
It doesn’t stop her from being a warm soul
This lady knows how to smile to the boys.

And when she tells you you’re table’s ready
You’d rather say that’s ok just come back
She’ll just smile and say come along Davey
You can tease your waitress, yep it’s Beth.

It wasn’t long ago that she was a mess
With jerk and a half and little to much meth
Now she loves that face she sees in the mirror
There’s no more tears running down her long neck.

And when she tells you you’re table’s ready
You’d rather say that’s ok just come back
She’ll just smile and say come along Timmy
You can tease your waitress, yep it’s Cath.

She pats the back of the guy with table 9
Smiles to the old fart who’s got that glossy shine
Check’s her device for the next open table
And knows she’s watched more than the local cable.

And when she tells you you’re table’s ready
You’d rather say that’s ok just come back
She’ll just smile and say come along Terry
You can tease your waitress, yep it’s Jacq.

Notes: written after I totally was in awe about a woman I saw hostess at the Cheesecake Factory in Jacksonsville FL. We were on Christmas vacation, and while the family was talking I was observing. I am an unabashed flirt, but nothing ever comes from it, because I'm as loyal as a dog loves dirt. That's a line I'll use some day, but it's true. This Lady's story is likely not true, but she was a carved beauty all in black, and I watched her more than the tv's strategically placed through out the restrurant. ;-)

And tonight... a video addition.
