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 |
| I’m talkin to the shadow |
| One o’clock till four |
| And 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 |
| Now man was born to go a lovin' |
| But was a woman born to weep and fret |
| And stay at home and tend her oven |
| And drown her past regrets |
| In coffee and cigarettes |
| I’m moonin' all the mornin' |
| Moanin' all the night |
| And in between it’s nicotine |
| And not much heart to fight |
| Black coffee |
| Feelin' low as the ground |
| It’s drivin' me crazy |
| This thinkin' 'bout my baby |
| Might maybe come around |
| Come around |
