Paolo Nutini - Smokey Joe's Cafe lyrics

One day while I was eating
Beans at Smokey Joe's Cafe just sitting
Diggin' all the scene at Smokey Joe's Cafe
A chick came walking 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 at me and my heart went 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 chips and beans at
Jim's or Jack's or John's or Gene's
Than take my chances eating down
At Smokey Joe's Cafe
Why risk my life when that
Smokey Joe's a crazy fool?
