Black Coffee |
Black coffee is my name |
Black coffee is not a thing |
Black coffee, freshly ground and fully packed |
Hot black coffee, boys, mmm that’s where it’s at, mean it |
Way back you all know since I don’t know when |
See I got hungover before I was 10 |
You see my skin is white but my soul is black |
So hot black coffee, that’s where it’s at |
(Black coffee) That’s what I’m talkin' about boys |
(Black coffee) That’s what I mean |
(Black coffee) Ooh you’ve got to feel it in your hand |
(Black coffee) Hmm yeah |
(Black coffee) |
Well you hear that |
Some black tea, well it can’t compare with me |
Black tea (can't compare with me) that’s right |
Black tea, well it’s as good as, it’s as good as, it’s as good as it can be |
But it’s a cup of black coffee that a working man needs to see, yeah |
In America, well it’s the land of the free |
You can get what you want if you’ve got some do re me |
Well travelling far and I work like a slave |
Now I’m independent, and you know I get laid |
I got me a job and I build me a place |
I got a spit of black coffee, oh how good it tastes |
I said a dime is all it costs in the States |
For a cup of black coffee, how good it tastes |
(Black coffee) Alright |
(Black coffee) Oh |
(Black coffee) It’s what I want now, it’s what I need |
(Black coffee) To suit my soul, to suit my soul now |
(Black coffee) It’s what I want, it’s what I need |
(Black coffee) It’s where it’s at, it’s where it’s at |
(Black coffee) Oh |
