Lyrics

I'm feeling mighty lonesome
Haven't slept a wink
Walk the floor and watch the door
And in between I drink black coffee
Love's a hand-me-down broom
I never know a Sunday
In this weekday room
I'm talking to the shadows
One o'clock to four
Love has left and moments go
And all I do is pour black coffee
Since the blues caught my eye
I'm hanging on to Monday
My Sunday dreams to dry
Now a man is born to go a-laughing
Woman's born to weep and fret
To stay at home and tend her oven
And drown her past regrets in coffee and cigarettes
Morning or the morning
Morning or the night
In between it's nicotine
And not much hard to find
Black coffee
Feeling low as the ground
It's driving me crazy
Waiting for my baby
To maybe come around
Maybe come around
Now a man is born to go a-laughing
Woman's born to weep and fret
To stay at home and tend her oven
And drown her past regrets in coffee and cigarettes
Morning or the morning
Morning or the night
In between it's nicotine
And not much hard to find
Black coffee
Feeling low as the ground
It's driving me crazy
Waiting for my baby
To maybe come around
Maybe come around
It's driving me crazy
Waiting for my baby
To maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe come around
It's driving me crazy
Waiting for my baby
To maybe come around
Maybe come around
Maybe, maybe come around
Maybe come around
