Coffee and Cake

There's a table in the kitchen

It's open for business

Soothing wounds and playing spoons and such

It started way back in their childhood

Gathered round when they could

Sweet smells of labor and love

Coffee and cake

Just like their mother made

Sit a spell. There're stories to tell

You laugh until you cry

Oh it's the birthplace of all your memories

Pour out all your miseries

Dry your eyes and soak up the advice

With coffee and cake

It don't need no open sign

It's 24/7 time

Come on in and make yourself at home

Oh there's a dim light that we keep

'Cause none of us can sleep

Pull up a chair, go ahead and have you some

Coffee and cake

Just like their mother made

Sit a spell. There're stories to tell

You laugh until you cry

It's the birthplace of all your memories

Pour out all your miseries

Dry your eyes and soak up the advice

With coffee and cake

Grounds are perculating

Batter is a baking

Warming up your soul

Sugar don't get old

Do as you're told

Grab some

Coffee and cake

Coffee and cake

Just like their mother made

Sit a spell. There're stories to tell

You laugh until you cry

Oh it's the birthplace of all your memories

Pour out all your miseries

Dry your eyes and soak up the advice

with coffee and cake

Cold oven pound cake

Hot cup of joe

Old fashioned crumb cake

Folgers in your cup
