Paolo Nutini - Smokey Joe's Cafe lyrics

One day while I was eating beans at Smokey Joe's Cafe Just sitting, reading all the scene at Smokey Joe's Cafe A chicken walked in through the door That I had never seen before At least I never saw her down at Smokey Joe's Cafe And I started shaking when she sat right down next to me Her knees were almost touching mine at Smokey Joe's Cafe A chill was running down my spine at Smokey Joe's Cafe And I could smell her sweet perfume She smiled and made my heart way boom And everybody in the room at Smokey Joe's Cafe Said, "Man, be careful, that chick belongs to Smokey Joe" And from behind the counter I saw a man A chef's hat on his head and a knife in his hand He grabbed me by the collar and began to shout He said "You better eat up all your beans, boy, then clear right out!" Oh, I know I'll never eat again at Smokey Joe's Cafe And so we'll never meet again at Smokey Joe's Cafe And I'd rather eat my chili beans at Jim's or Jack's or John's or Gene's Than take my chances eating down at Smokey Joe's Cafe I risked my life when that Smokey Joe's a crazy fool
