Lyrics

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 hair's turning gray
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
Love's a sorry affair
I know where all the blues are
'Cause baby I've been there
A man is born to love a woman
To work and slave and pay her debts
And just because he's only human
To drown his past regrets in coffee and cigarettes
I'm moaning all the morning
I'm mourning all the night
And in between it's nicotine
And not much heart to fight black coffee
Feeling low as can be
It's driving me crazy
This waiting for my baby
To come back home to me
This waiting for my baby
To come back home to me
Well this waiting for my baby
You better come on home to me
