Verse
G
He was a short order cook, and not too much to look at
G D
And he traded in his foot for a medal in the war
D
He loved a girl named Lila in the bar across the highway
C G
And you ought to see him smilin' at her comin' through the door
[Verse 2]
G
Lila always knew she wasn't no ravin' beauty
G D
She traded in her virtue to a trucker at sixteen
D
But she forgets to remember how he left her off in Denver
C G
When she sees her Cooky smilin' as she opens up the screen
[Chorus]
G C G
When he says hi Lila, how 'bout a cup of coffee?
G
Take a load off, take your shoes off
G D
Here's the sugar and the cream
C G
'Cause Cooky's been to war and Lila's been to Denver
G D G
And both of them are casualties of someone else's dream.
[Verse 3]
G
Cooky pours the truckers' coffee, Lila serves the riggers' whiskey
G D
And resists their invitations to go riding for a while.
D
'Cause in a diner 'cross the highway on a shelf above the pastry
C G
There's a cup reserved for Lila and the man who makes her smile
[Chorus]
G C G
When he says hi Lila, how 'bout a cup of coffee?
G
Take a load off, take your shoes off
G D
Here's the sugar and the cream
C G
'Cause Cooky's been to war and Lila's been to Denver
G D G
And both of them are casualties of someone else's dream.
[Verse 4]
G
Now as the nation rolls along like a semi down the highway
G D
Casting lonely broken bodies in the grass along the road
D
I've finally found a reason for believing in the future
C G
Seeing Cooky and his Lila drinkin' coffee all alone
[Chorus]
G C G
When he says hi Lila, how 'bout a cup of coffee?
G
Take a load off, take your shoes off
G D
Here's the sugar and the cream
C G
'Cause Cooky's been to war and Lila's been to Denver
G D G
And both of them are casualties of someone else's dream.
C G
'Cause Cooky's been to war and Lila's been to Denver
G D G
And both of them are casualties of someone else's dream.
