shoeshine man

 

Johnny, the shoeshine man, takes a catnap between customers (or else the morning newspaper has little of interest).  The barber chair in the Cast Iron Grill's entry is not just for decoration.  During the $5 shoeshine after your lunch of chicken-fried steak and pecan pie, I bet you too can have a brief snooze while Johnny puts a high gloss on your boots.

I'm a shoeshine man
Number one in the land
Shoeshine man- Make you shine where you stand
Leave me a tip if you can
I'm a shoeshine man.
