Coffee, Coffee, Coffee
(from Real: The Tom T. Hall Project)


(Tom T. Hall)

Some men drink alcohol
Some men juices of the vine
But as for me
I'm very simple
Give me coffee every time

Make it warm
Make it sweet
Just the way my life has been
Give me coffee, coffee, coffee
And you've absolutely found yourself a friend

Cincinnati
Early in the morning
Waiting on an old Greyhound
Or Kansas City
Right around midnight
Bring that coffee pot around

Make it hot
Make it now
Put a little cream and sugar in
Give me coffee, coffee, coffee
And I tell you, you have found yourself a friend

A coffee cup
Of finest silver
Cream from a golden can
You see that pot
It's percolating
Sounds like music from a band

These old bones
They're tired and weary
You can perk them up again
Give me coffee, coffee, coffee
And I tell you, you have found yourself a friend

Let me tell you, you have found yourself a friend
I can tell you, you have found yourself a friend
You have absolutely found yourself a friend
I can tell you, you have found yourself a friend
