Black Coffee

[Verse 1] I'm feeling mighty lonesome Haven't slept a wink I walk the floor and watch the door And in between I drink [Chorus] Black coffee Love's a hand me down brew I'll never know a Sunday In this weekday room [Verse 2] I'm talking to the shadows 1 o'clock to 4 And Lord, how slow the moments go When all I do is pour [Chorus] Black coffee Since the blues caught my eye I'm hanging out on Monday My Sunday dream's too dry [Verse 3] 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 [Bridge] I'm moody all the morning Mourning all the night And in between it's nicotine And not much hard to fight [Chorus] Black coffee Feelin' low as the ground It's driving me crazy just waiting for my baby To maybe come around [Outro] My nerves have gone to pieces My hair is turning gray All I do is drink black coffee Since my man's gone away
