Lyrics

0:18I'm feeling mighty lonesome
0:22Haven't slept a wink
0:25I walk the floor and watch the door
0:30And in between I drink
0:33Black coffee
0:39Love's a hand me down brew
0:51I'll never know a Sunday
0:55In this weekday room
1:07I'm talking to the shadows
1:11One o'clock to four
1:14And lord how slow the moments go
1:19When all I do is pour
1:22Black coffee
1:28Since the blues caught my eye
1:40I'm hanging out on Monday
1:44My Sunday dreams to dry
1:54Now a man is born to go a loving
2:04A woman's born to weep and fret
2:11To stay at home and tend her oven
2:20And drown her past regrets
2:24In coffee and cigarettes
2:30I'm mooning all the morning
2:34Mourning all the night
2:37And in between it's nicotine
2:41And not much heart to fight
2:45Black coffee
2:51Feeling low as the ground
2:59It's driving me crazy
3:02Just waiting for my baby
3:07To maybe come around
4:09Now a man is born to go a loving
4:19A woman's born to weep and fret
4:26To stay at home and tend her oven
4:34And drown her past regrets
4:38In coffee and cigarettes
4:44I'm mooning all the morning
4:48Mourning all the night
4:51And in between it's nicotine
4:55And not much heart to fight
4:59Black coffee
5:05Feeling low as the ground
5:13It's driving me crazy
5:16Just waiting for my baby
5:21To maybe come around
I'm feeling 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
One o'clock to four
And lord how slow the moments go
When all I do is pour
Black coffee
Since the blues caught my eye
I'm hanging out on Monday
My Sunday dreams to dry
Now a man is born to go a loving
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 mooning all the morning
Mourning all the night
And in between it's nicotine
And not much heart to fight
Black coffee
Feeling low as the ground
It's driving me crazy
Just waiting for my baby
To maybe come around
Now a man is born to go a loving
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 mooning all the morning
Mourning all the night
And in between it's nicotine
And not much heart to fight
Black coffee
Feeling low as the ground
It's driving me crazy
Just waiting for my baby
To maybe come around
