Biografia:
Cory Branan is a singer/songwriter, born in Southaven, Mississippi. He garnered comparisons to Ryan Adams, Pete Yorn, and Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst with the release of his 2002 debut album The Hell You Say.
By his teens, Branan was playing hard rock and heavy metal, eventually fronting a Black Sabbath cover band. In his early 20s he began to explore the music of John Prine, a move which urged him to pick up a guitar and start writing songs.

E
Well, there is only one reason I stop in this place
B
Let me stress that it ain’t the cuisine
The eggs are all runny, the hash browns smell funny and
E
The coffee tastes like gasoline
E
But there goes the one thing that I’ve been looking forward to
B
For the last six-hundred miles
In a slow motion pan with 8 beers in each hand
E
What’s here of heaven in her smile
E B E
She is the prettiest waitress in Memphis
Fm B
And I think she’s flirting with me
Readin’ them specials- extra special
E
She slipped a finger into my sweet tea
E
O’ but a small stack of singles from a hard double-shift
B
Will do terrible things to a smile
And the prettiest waitress in Memphis knows
E (intro riff)
She’s only that way for a while
Somehow she remembered my name though its been
Several months since I passed through this way
She said she’s lived here all her twenty three years
I said I’d be here for a day
Ordered the pecan pie and with a wink of an eye
Got a slice as big as my head
And her name and her number on a Sweet-n-Low package
Is the best poem that I’ve ever read
She’s the prettiest waitress in Memphis,
And I know she's flirtin' with me.
Been reading them specials, extra special.
Slipped a finger into my sweet tea.
O' but a small stack of singles from a hard double-shift
Will do terrible things to her smile.
And the prettiest waitress in Memphis knows,
She's only that way for a while.
Well, the prettiest waitress in Memphis
Spilled her heart all over me
As I held her that night in a way she was right when she said,
“This will all change eventually”
Cause she ain’t the prettiest waitress in Memphis no more
But it’s not what you’re thinking- you see
The prettiest waitress in Memphis just quit
And she’s leaving Memphis with me
The prettiest ex-waitress in all of Memphis is
Leaving Memphis with me.
