Black Coffee

Lyrics

I'm feelin' 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 from one o'clock 'til four
 And Lord, how slow the moments go
 When 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 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 moanin' all the morning
 And moanin' all the night
 And in between its nicotine
 And not much heart to fight
 Black coffee
 Feelin' low as the ground
 It's drivin' me crazy
 This waitin' for my baby
 To someday maybe come around
 ♪
 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 moanin' all the morning
 And moanin' all the night
 And in between its nicotine
 And not much heart to fight
 Black coffee
 Feelin' low as the ground
 It's drivin' me crazy
 This waitin' for my baby
 To someday maybe come around
