Donut and a Dream, A

by C. Carson Parks

One cup of coffee, waitress, ain't quite enough. The highway life ain't quite the life it seems. Tonight i seem to find the roadbed pretty rough. Give me a donut and a dream. Release #1 I count my life in terms of hours down the line. Leaving some women just gets harder all the time. I've tried to live one roadside diner at a time. Just pour it black, i don't take cream. Life must be something more than one cup for a dime. And tonight i need a donut and a dream. Release #2 I think she likes me and i ought to hang around Then i get to thinking i should try another town. One cup of coffee, waitress, ain't quite enough Tonight i need a donut and a dream.
