The Lyrics
Hotcakes were her favorite every morning
For breakfast it was Ihop, all the way
But love took a bad course
She's gone, and...filed for divorce
Now, I sit all alone here every day
I'm havin'... Hotcakes By The Number,
Coffees...by the score..
Every day I miss my Bess
And love her more and more
I hear, "What...syrup would you like, Sir?"
The waitress speaks her line
Well, I tell her thanks for askin'
But, I'll just have tears on mine
Hotcakes fill the platters...stacked around me
The bill's a hundred dollars, I must pay
I'll munch another mouthful,
Keep my...eyes on the door
And maybe she'll come in again, today...
Yes, I've got....Hotcakes By The Number
Sadly keepin' score
Brunchin' up my lonliness,
This plate makes eighty four
I hear, "What syrup would you like, Sir?"
The waitress speaks her line
Well, I tell her thanks for askin'
But, I'll just have tears on mine..
Yes, I tell her thanks for askin'
But, I'll just have tears on mine...
For breakfast it was Ihop, all the way
But love took a bad course
She's gone, and...filed for divorce
Now, I sit all alone here every day
I'm havin'... Hotcakes By The Number,
Coffees...by the score..
Every day I miss my Bess
And love her more and more
I hear, "What...syrup would you like, Sir?"
The waitress speaks her line
Well, I tell her thanks for askin'
But, I'll just have tears on mine
Hotcakes fill the platters...stacked around me
The bill's a hundred dollars, I must pay
I'll munch another mouthful,
Keep my...eyes on the door
And maybe she'll come in again, today...
Yes, I've got....Hotcakes By The Number
Sadly keepin' score
Brunchin' up my lonliness,
This plate makes eighty four
I hear, "What syrup would you like, Sir?"
The waitress speaks her line
Well, I tell her thanks for askin'
But, I'll just have tears on mine..
Yes, I tell her thanks for askin'
But, I'll just have tears on mine...

Ah, old rockabilly tunes. Watch out for all those 555 grams of fast carbohydrates!
I imagined you at the Grand Ole Opry amidst bales of hay, weeping out this parody in fine tradition. : ) 5's
Oh, your poor, battered heart... lemme butter you up with some fives.
So, Bess didn't keep her marriage vow: "For batter, or for verse..."?.... Can't pan this. Breakfast special today: 84 hotcakes, $5.55
good one
wow...you managed to make it as tear-jerkin' as the original but about flapjacks...amazing...title cracked me up
Good country parody to a country song.
Many thanks to Susanna, Adagio, Michael, (good pun), Tommy, (another good pun), Ann, alvin, and 2Eagle
I love I Hop. Love the line, "brunchin' up my loneliness". Looks like your breakfast is gonna cost you $5.55!
I feel your pain. Here's some 5's to comfort you
I love pancakes... don't know if I could eat a 100$ worth of them though. Here's some 5s for the tip.
555 as always, and you know what-you really shouldn't talk about pancakes in front of a hungry David, who does not have a below average appetite. . .
Thanks also to Yoidy, Matthias, Red Ant, and Dave
