I drive my Dodge downtown
before my morning chores
to a white stucco builing
brass bell on the door.

A diner with a counter
and mix matched silverware.
You can hear the bacon sizzle
smell the coffee in the air.

Chorus- It old friends and politics
biscuits and grits.
Farmers in flannel shirts and dusty baseball caps.
Home cooked food and home town ways,
A good start for my day.
I like my eggs over easy
at the Linwood Cafe.

We're worried bout this season
our quarterback is hurt.
We had another split
down at the Baptist church.
I bought a raffle ticket
help out the PTA
We stand for the flag,
love the USA.


Chorus- It's old friends and politics
biscuits and grits
farmers in flannel shirts
and dusty baseball caps.
Home cooked food and hometown ways
a good start for my day.
I like my eggs over easy
at the Linwood Cafe.

If I could bottle up the magic
how I feel when I go there
I't be the richest guy in town
I'd be a millionaire.

Chorus- It's old friends and politics
biscuits and grits
farmers in flannel shirts
dusty baseball caps.
Home cooked food and home town ways
a good start to my day.
I like my eggs over easy
at the Linwood Cafe.
