[Verse 1] Hash browns on the stove Golden in the pan Coffee brewing slow Your keys in your hand Hear that belly talking Louder than the news You can chase the morning But you gotta choose [Pre-Chorus] You say you’re running late I say, “Baby, wait” Got a plate with your name And it’s getting cold [Chorus] Sit down and eat Sit down and eat You can’t run on empty Can’t move on empty Sit down and eat Sit down and eat What’s five more minutes? Come on, take a seat [Verse 2] Hungry man with an appetite Eyes on every bite Scrambled eggs and toast Got you looking right I know that job is calling I know the road is mean But you don’t build a good day On a vacant machine [Pre-Chorus] You say you’re running late I say, “Baby, wait” Got a plate with your name And it’s getting cold [Chorus] Sit down and eat Sit down and eat You can’t run on empty Can’t move on empty Sit down and eat Sit down and eat What’s five more minutes? Come on, take a seat [Bridge] One fork, two forks Let the rush go by Sugar in the coffee And a little peace of mind I’ll keep the world waiting You just take your time First things first, baby Feed that fire [Chorus] Sit down and eat Sit down and eat You can’t run on empty Can’t move on empty Sit down and eat Sit down and eat What’s five more minutes? Come on, take a seat
