Black Coffee - Remastered 2003
Carmen McRae feat. Shirley Horn
I'm feeling mighty lonesome Haven't slept a wink I walk the floor and watch the door And 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 shadows One o'clock to 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 a 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.
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I'm mournin' all the mornin' Moaning all night And in between it's nicotine And all I do is fight Black coffee Feelin' low as the ground It's drivin' me crazy just waitin' for my baby To maybe-maybe come around.
Now a man is born to go a lovin' A woman's born to weep and fret Stay at home and tend her oven And drown her past regrets In coffee and cigarettes.
I'm moanin' all morning Mourning all the night And in between it's nicotine And ain't got much heart to fight Black coffee, black coffee Feelin' low as the ground It's drivin' me crazy just waitin' for my baby To maybe come around... To maybe come around.
