Black Coffee

I’m feelin' mighty lonesome
Haven’t slept a wink
I walk the floor from nine to four
In between I drink
Black coffee
Love’s a hand-me-down brew
I’ll never know a Sunday
In this weekday room
Then talkin' to the shadow
One o’clock till four
Lord, how slow the moments go
And all I do is pour
Black coffee
Since the blues caught my eye
I’m hangin' out on Monday
My Sunday dreams to dry
You know a man is born to love a woman
To work and slave to pay her debts
Just because he’s only human
To drown his past regrets in coffee and cigarettes
I’m moonin' all the mornin'
Moanin' all the night
In between it’s nicotine
Not much heart to fight
Black coffee
Feelin' low as the ground
I’m waitin' for my baby
To maybe come around
Gonna drown my past regrets
In some coffee and a few cigarettes
I’m moonin' all the mornin'
Moanin' all the night
In between it’s nicotine
And not much heart to fight
Black coffee
Feelin' low as the ground'
It`s driving me crazy just waitin' for my baby
To maybe come around
Please come around
Please come
