Dr. Hook - Cooky and lila

^FHe was a short order cook, and not too much to look at ^FAnd he traded in his foot for a medal in the w^Car ^CHe loved a girl named Lila in the bar across the highway ^BbAnd you ought to see him smilin' at her comin' through the^F door

^FLila always knew she wasn't no ravin' beauty ^FShe traded in her virtue to a trucker at six^Cteen ^CBut she forgets to remember how he left her off in Denver ^BbWhen she sees her Cooky smilin' as she opens up the sc^Freen

^FWhen he says ^Bbhi Lila, how 'bo^Fut a cup of coffee? ^FTake a load off, take your shoes off H^Fere's the sugar and the cre^Cam 'Cause C^Bbooky's been to war and L^Fila's been to Denver ^FAnd both of them are casualties of so^Cmeone else's dr^Feam.

^FCooky pours the truckers' coffee, Lila serves the riggers' whiskey ^FAnd resists their invitations to go riding for a wh^Cile. '^CCause in a diner 'cross the highway on a shelf above the pastry ^BbThere's a cup reserved for Lila and the man who makes her smi^Fle

^FWhen he says ^Bbhi Lila, how 'bo^Fut a cup of coffee? ^FTake a load off, take your shoes off H^Fere's the sugar and the cre^Cam 'Cause C^Bbooky's been to war and L^Fila's been to Denver ^FAnd both of them are casualties of so^Cmeone else's dr^Feam.

^FNow as the nation rolls along like a semi down the highway ^FCasting lonely broken bodies in the grass along the r^Coad ^CI've finally found a reason for believing in the future ^BbSeeing Cooky and his Lila drinkin' coffee all a^Flone

^FWhen he says ^Bbhi Lila, how 'bo^Fut a cup of coffee? ^FTake a load off, take your shoes off H^Fere's the sugar and the cre^Cam 'Cause C^Bbooky's been to war and L^Fila's been to Denver ^FAnd both of them are casualties of so^Cmeone else's dr^Feam. 'Cause C^Bbooky's been to war and L^Fila's been to Denver ^FAnd both of them are casualties of so^Cmeone else's dr^Feam.
