|
I'm feeling mighty lonesome |
|
Haven't slept a wink |
|
I walk the floor and watch the door |
|
And 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 talking to the shadows |
|
One o'clock to four |
|
And, Lord, how slow the moments go |
|
When all I do is pour |
|
Black coffee |
|
Since the blues caught my eye |
|
I'm hanging out on Monday |
|
My Sunday dream's too dry |
|
Now a man is born to go a-lovin' |
|
A woman's born to weep and fret |
|
To stay at home and tend her oven |
|
And drown her past regrets |
|
In coffee and cigarettes |
|
I'm moody all the morning |
|
And I'm mourning all the night |
|
And in between it's nicotine |
|
And not much heart to fight |
|
Black coffee |
|
Feeling low as the ground |
|
It's driving me crazy |
|
This waiting for my baby |
|
To maybe come around |
