I'm feeling mighty lonesome
I haven't slept a wink
I walk the floor and watch the door
And in between I drink
Black coffee
Since my gal went away
My nerves have gone to pieces
And my air is turning gray
I'm talking to the shadows
From one o'clock to four
And Lord, how slow the moments go
When all I do is pour
Black Coffee
Love's a sorry affair
I know where all the blues are
'Cause baby I've been there
Now a man is born to love a woman
To work and slave to pay her debts
And just because he's only human
To spend his past regrets
In coffee and cigarettes
I'm moanin all the morning
And moanin all the night
And in between is nicotin
And not much hard to fight
Black coffee
Feeling low as can be
It's driving me crazy
This waiting for my baby
To come on home to me
