Black Coffee

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 talkin' to the shadows
 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
 And stay at home and tend her oven
 And drown her past regrets
 In coffee and cigarettes
 I'm moanin' all the mornin'
 And mornin' all the night
 And in between it's nicotine
 And not much heart to fight
 Coffee
 Feelin' low as the ground
 It's drivin' me crazy
 This waitin' for my baby
 To maybe come around
