I took this tab from ttabs--I thought Ultimate Guitar could use more LW3 tabs From: Tip That Waitress Loudon Wainwright III Capo 2 She’s been on her feet nearly half the damn night Bringing you beverage and your late night bite She remains cheerful when you’re nasty and tight Makes change for a fifty in dim candlelight. Ignoring your groping hoping you might Come across with a tip and sympathize with her plight.    Tip that waitress. Shes getting her masters supporting her mom Amidst the confusion she remains cool and calm She knows exits in case of a fire or bomb She knows all the words to the 23rd psalm She handles her tray with panache and aplomb Her brothers a Quaker her dad was in Naa-aaa-aaa-aam     Tip that waitress. Bridge 1 Tip that waitress She’s been waiting on you. Skip the small change Slap down a dollar or two. Her arches are aching her lower backs shot Her varicose vein hurts like hell when its hot Her uniform’s too tight tasteful its not She knows the specials and they are not a lot. The cook is on Qualudes the bus boy deals pot If she had a real job she’d quit on the spot              So tip that waitress. This plea for gratuity’s gone on way too long Theres a time and a place where them things belong The stage ain’t a soap box this is only a song To dwell on the matter much more would be wrong. And people get by she’ll get along But I think she gets off when I come on Stro--ooo-ooo- ong So tip that waitress. Bridge 2 Tip that waitress She’s been waiting on you. Skip the small change Slap down a fiver or two. She’s been on her feet nearly half the damn night Bringing you beverage and your late night bite She remains cheerful when you’re nasty and tight Makes change for a fifty in dim candlelight. Ignoring your groping hoping you might Come across with a tip and sympathize with her plight.    Tip that waitress.

Cette chanson évoque le quotidien difficile d'une serveuse qui, malgré les défis qu'elle affronte, reste souriante et dévouée à son travail. Elle jongle avec les commandes dans un environnement où les clients peuvent être exigeants et parfois désagréables. Tout en s'occupant d'eux, elle aspire à être reconnue et appréciée, notamment à travers un pourboire qui montrerait que son effort est valorisé. Le thème central traite de la reconnaissance du travail acharné de ceux qui, comme elle, se battent pour joindre les deux bouts tout en poursuivant leurs études et en soutenant leur famille. Elle enchaîne les longues heures en étant consciente de son statut, mais elle continue à faire preuve de professionnalisme et de grâce. La chanson est un rappel humoristique, mais aussi poignant, sur le respect et la gratitude que l'on doit à ces travailleurs souvent sous-estimés.
