Well sheand's up against the register with an apron and a spatula,
yesterdayand's deliveries, tickets for the bachelors
sheand's a moving violation from her conk down to her shoes,
well, itand's just an invitation to the blues
and you feel just like cagney, she looks like rita hayworth
at the counter of the schwaband's drugstore
you wonder if she might be single, sheand's a loner and likes to mingle
got to be patient, try and pick up a clue
she said how you gonna like and'em, over medium or scrambled?,
you say anywayand's the only way, be careful not to gamble
on a guy with a suitcase and a ticket getting out of here
itand's a tired bus station and an old pair of shoes
this ainand't nothing but an invitation to the blues
but you canand't take your eyes off her, get another cup of java,
itand's just the way she pours it for you, joking with the customers
mercy mercy, mr. percy, there ainand't nothing back in jersey
but a broken-down jalopy of a man i left behind
and the dream that i was chasing, and a battle with booze
and an open invitation to the blues
but she used to have a sugar daddy and a candy-apple caddy,
and a bank account and everything, accustomed to the finer things
he probably left her for a socialite, and he didnand't and'cept at night,
and then heand's drunk and never even told her that her cared
so they took the registration, and the car-keys and her shoes
and left her with an invitation to the blues
cause thereand's a continental trailways leaving local bus tonight, good evening
you can have my seat, iand'm sticking round here for a while
get me a room at the squire, the filling stationand's hiring,
and i can eat here every night, what the hell have i got to lose?
got a crazy sensation, go or stay? now i gotta choose,
and iand'll accept your invitation to the blues
