Red Checkered Tablecloth - Walter Brennan
Well
Another busy night's come to an end
I think I'll
Just rest my weary bones and
Set here with my friend
Folks may say I'm
A crazy old coot
Well I recon I could be
But this old red checkered tablecloth
Means an awful lot to me
You see I wait the tables
I'm here most every night
I see young folks a kissin'
An' I sure do see 'em fight
And that old checkered tablecloth
In the corner over there
Well
It's my friend
We both of a secret
That we share
Dreams belong to every man
And mine just might come true
That's why this old checkered table cloth is
Is always set for two
I know I'm just a waiter
But it weren't always so
I used to bring
My true love here
Some twenty years ago
And right across the table
While we'd be holding hands
My friend the checkered tablecloth
Listen to our plans
Every single night
I'd bring her to this place
I can't forget her laughter
And I just can't forget her face
Now I sit here with my friend an'
I rest my weary bones
My love walked out that door one night
An' left me here alone
That's why I never left this place
And I'll tell you somethin' more
Some day I'm gonna see my love
Aome a walking through that door
Now after ten we're
Sitting here just like we used to do
This old red checkered tablecloth
Is always
Set for two
