Blue Plate Special

Blue Plate Special David J Walker Why is it I never Eat as well when You’re not here Even though I am the one The lone man at home Doing the cooking for no one When I know that you’re not looking A chicken fried steak Might find its way Into the hot grease of my frying pan And there may be Peppery country gravy To go with the Buttery mashed potatoes And Italian green beans And a brown and serve roll On my blue plate special And by the way I would die for a slice of your Apple pie about now Come home baby Before the blue plate special Isn’t special anymore
