Black Coffee Lyrics
[00:07.24] I'm feelin' mighty lonesome
[00:11.89] Haven't slept a wink
[00:14.72] I walk the floor and watch the door
[00:18.84] And in between I drink
[00:22.58] Black coffee
[00:27.35] Love's a hand me down brew
[00:32.47]
[00:37.74] I'll never know a Sunday
[00:42.33] In this weekday room
[00:47.21]
[00:51.88] I'm talking to the shadows
[00:56.25] One o'clock til four
[00:59.35] And lord, how slow the moments go
[01:03.57] When all I do is pour
[01:06.52] Black coffee
[01:11.71] Since the blues caught my eye
[01:22.01] I'm hanging out on Monday
[01:26.44] My Sunday dreams, to dry
[01:36.26] Now man is born to go a'lovin
[01:43.12]
[01:45.22] A woman's born to weep and fret
[01:51.82] To stay at home and tend her oven
[01:59.23] And drown her past regrets in coffee and cigarettes
[02:07.61] I'm moonin all the mornin'
[02:11.47] Mournin' all the night
[02:14.22] And in between it's nicotine
[02:18.03] And not much heart to fight
[02:21.53] Black coffee
[02:27.18] Feelin' low as the ground
[02:33.65] It's driving me crazy this waitin' for my baby
[02:42.09] To maybe come around
[02:45.94]
