I'm waiting for someone to prove me wrong when I say that it seems highly unlikely that Ernest Tubb -- or any other country artist with the possible exception of Kinky Friedman -- recorded a song with the words "Jewish café" in it. There is a great old Warner Mack tune called "Sittin' in an All-Night Café" -- could that be it?

Probably not....

Sittin' in an all nite cafe
In a booth back in the corner
Makin' paperwads from napkins,
Throwin' toothpicks on the floor
I got a problem I can't solve
So I'm gonna sit here till i figure out
The reason why my baby doesn't love me anymore.

Well, it can't be another woman
'Cause I've never looked at anyone
As long as I've been knowin' her
And that's a long, long time
Had so many cups of coffee
Betcha that I get an ulcer
Sittin' in this all nite cafe
With my baby on my mind.

Jimmie Rodgers’ song WHISPER YOUR MOTHER’S NAME begins with the line: “I was seated one day in a gilded cafe.” It was also recorded by Gene Autry, Hank Snow, and Wilf Carter.

"Funny Face" was written by Donna Fargo who had a hit with it in 1972.
