Cornell's

Cheryl Wheeler

4

She speaks English and Portuguese

Sells out chances to the lotteries

Waits on customers and shoots the breeze

With the men at the coffee bar

She knows who her good friends are

Keeps a smile for she's out to please

Keeps her dresses below her knees

Runs the best of the pharmacies

Here on the east side of town

Bringin' those customers 'round

Plump old women in thrift store clothes

Talk grand children and TV shows

In comes young girl with powdered nose

And leaves baby daughter or son

The ladies all cuddle each one

Wives to the left side, men to the right

"Four large coffees, no sugar, one light

Rose we missed you at cards last night"

And she gives 'em a smile or two

Rose and her Dial-a-Brew
