Molly works down at the diner, she serves up smiles with pie
Her apron's always covered in flour, but her spirits are sky high
She's got a pet armadillo named Arnie, a little guy with a shell so strong
Together they run through the pastures, singing their happy song
Arnie's got a nose for trouble, sniffin' out fun all day
He'll roll into a ball and tumble, and chase all the gloom away
With his little feet patterin' on the dirt, they race until the night
Molly laughs and claps her hands, oh everything's just right
Molly and Arnie, the best of friends
Through the fields, the fun never ends
With a flick of her wrist, she pours tea for two
Sharing dreams under skies so blue
In the evening when the stars come out, they sit by the old oak tree
Molly whispers little stories, while Arnie listens with glee
He's a curious little armadillo, with a heart that's big and bright
Together they paint the moonlight, in the canvas of the night
Sometimes they dance on the diner floor, when everyone's gone away
Molly twirls in her apron, and Arnie follows in his own sway
To the rhythm of a simple life, their hearts beat as one
For in friendship, they've found a world of fun
Now every kid in town, they know about Molly and Arnie's tale
How they chase away the shadows, and ride life's little trail
In the warm embrace of small-town charm, their story's always told
A waitress and her armadillo, a friendship made of gold
