Coffee And Wine

Lyrics

Tommy, you know, he had one deaf ear
 Back from his minesweeping days
 You never could tell just what he could and could not hear
 And he intended to keep it that way
 He joined the Navy just like his Daddy done
 When he was of the rightful age
 He took off right quick like many a kid did
 When he parents took hard to the drink
 And now it's coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water
 Any time's a good time so go unlock your daughters
 With his motorcycle friends, they're going off again
 From the Black Sea all the way to Britain
 All the way to Britain
 She was a dame of New Jersey fame,
 Lived her life like it was a bourre game
 And if there were sides being taken
 You better believe you wanna be on the side she was on
 She went to the city for secretary school
 Ended up working for the CIA
 She had a short hand that didn't suffer no fools
 She intended to keep it that way
 And she drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water
 Any old time she could any horse she wanted
 And if you gonna ride then you ride it like you stole it from a steeple chase
 She drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water
 Boys tried to give chase but no one ever caught her
 Till she found her love, and Sheila didn't let Tommy sleep for days
 Their first meeting was hardly a word
 But he built her a harpsichord
 And he found her unconscious just inside the door
 And carried her to help
 Now every now and again
 She pretends to faint on the harpsichord bench
 And he picks her up again and carries her up to their bed
 And they drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water
 Any time's a good time cause now they have a daughter
 And she rides so fast, they said they gonna name her Farley
 They drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water
 Don't ask what kind, it's just the kind our parents brought us
 From the Black Sea shore and the girl next door who could ride
 They drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water
 Any times's a good time cause now they have a daughter
 And she rides so fast, they said they gonna name her Farley
 They drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water
 Don't ask what kind, it's just the kind our parents brought us
 From the Black Sea shore and the girl next door who could ride
