I'm feelin' mighty lonesome, haven't slept a wink I walk the floor and watch the door 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 shadow one o'clock till 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 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 I'm moonin' all the mornin', moanin' all the night And in between it's nicotine And not much heart to fight Black coffee , feelin' low as the ground It's drivin' me crazy this waitin' for my baby To maybe come around, to maybe come around Pour me black coffee And I'll come around
