| One cup of coffee, then I’ll go;
|
| Though I just dropped by to let you know
|
| That I’m leaving you tomorrow;
|
| I’ll cause you no more sorrow:
|
| One cup of coffee, then I’ll go.
|
| I brought the money like the lawyer said to do,
|
| But it won’t replace the 'eartache I caused you;
|
| It won’t take the place of lovin' you, I know,
|
| So one cup of coffee, then I’ll go.
|
| Tell the kids I came last night
|
| And kissed them while they slept;
|
| Make my coffee sweet and warm
|
| Just the way you used to lie in my arms.
|
| I brought the money like the lawyer said to do,
|
| But it won’t replace the 'eartache I caused you;
|
| It won’t take the place of lovin' you, I know,
|
| So one cup of coffee, then I’ll go;
|
| One cup of coffee, then I’ll go;
|
| One cup of coffee, then I’ll go. |
