[Verse 1]
Mom said get dressed, we movin’ early
Shyanne in the back seat, Willie actin’ burly
Pulled up to Big Boy, thought we hit the jackpot
Mouth already waterin’, stomach growin’ hot
[Pre-Chorus]
But the sign said closed
Still half-asleep and froze
No pancakes on the plate
Had to pivot, switch the fate
[Chorus]
Big Boy closed, Big Boy closed
We had to roll, we had to roll
Hit Roosters instead, let the whole car know
Shy and Willie eat good, then we go home (go home)
Big Boy closed, Big Boy closed
Roosters came through, that’s how it goes
Took it to Shy’s house, right down the road
Shy’s home, Shy’s home, that’s where it goes (that’s where it goes)
[Verse 2]
Biscuits in the box, eggs stacked high
Hash browns golden, couldn’t pass that by
Mom said “Well, that’s life, we still gon’ eat”
Willie grinnin’ wide in the passenger seat
Shy is short for Shyanne, just so you know
She smiled at the window, said “Let’s go, let’s go”
Pulled to her spot with the paper sack swing
Breakfast on the porch, that’s the whole thing
[Pre-Chorus]
No trip was a loss
We shook it and we crossed
From closed doors to a spread
Had us all fed instead
[Chorus]
Big Boy closed, Big Boy closed
We had to roll, we had to roll
Hit Roosters instead, let the whole car know
Shy and Willie eat good, then we go home (go home)
Big Boy closed, Big Boy closed
Roosters came through, that’s how it goes
Took it to Shy’s house, right down the road
Shy’s home, Shy’s home, that’s where it goes (that’s where it goes)
[Bridge]
Funny how a morning flips
One locked door, one lucky fix
Same love, same ride, same crew
Breakfast turned out better than we knew
[Chorus]
Big Boy closed, Big Boy closed
We had to roll, we had to roll
Hit Roosters instead, let the whole car know
Shy and Willie eat good, then we go home (go home)
Big Boy closed, Big Boy closed
Roosters came through, that’s how it goes
Took it to Shy’s house, right down the road
Shy’s home, Shy’s home, that’s where it goes (that’s where it goes)
