Black Coffee and Cigarettes

I don't drink, I just smoke I don't gamble no more And I don't use no toke All I wanna do is be with you Smoke my cigarettes and have some java brew Make it black, and strong, that's what I need Cause when I think of love, don't you know what I bleed? I bleed blues, and rhythm, and rock'n roll All that funky stuff that shakes up my soul Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what she told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes Now coffee next to oil is the second greatest traded commodity I don't know what that means! All I know I'm black and I'm blue, and I'm crazy for you Sometimes I just want to scream (Go on and scream boy!) Even Nostradamus couldn't name us Cause love is blind- love is blind And you can't see the future You just say 'who's her?' She's sure 'nough is fine Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what she told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes (Lead solo) I took a bus trip back in time Round 66 when it was the main line I saw teepees and motel, design like events And then I saw that place Where we once spent But nostalgia ain't what it used to be When you take out the good parts and leave in the misery But if I had to do it again You know I'd do it with you, it was dumb like sin, yeah! Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what she told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes I'm singing (la la la la) Yeah, yeah, yeah (la la la la) I'm singing (la la la la) Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what she told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes Drinking black coffee and cigarettes
