[00:00.00]Black Coffee - Gordon Jenkins/Ella Fitzgerald/His Orchestra
[00:14.69]I'm feeling mighty lonesome
[00:18.84]Haven't slept a wink
[00:21.82]I walk the floor and watch the door
[00:25.45]And in between I drink
[00:29.02]Black coffee
[00:32.84]
[00:33.53]Love's a hand me down brew
[00:39.87]
[00:42.86]I'll never know a Sunday
[00:47.85]In this weekday room
[00:54.20]
[00:56.88]I'm talking to the shadows
[01:01.08]One o'clock to four
[01:03.70]
[01:04.26]And Lord how slow the moments go
[01:07.98]When all I do is pour
[01:11.07]Black coffee
[01:15.78]Since the blues caught my eye
[01:22.51]
[01:25.09]I'm hanging out on Monday
[01:30.26]My Sunday dreams to dry
[01:38.42]
[01:39.13]Now a man is born to go a lovin'
[01:45.98]A woman's born to weep and fret
[01:53.36]To stay at home and tend her oven
[02:00.11]And drown her past regrets
[02:03.63]In coffee and cigarettes
[02:05.42]
[02:06.93]I'm moody all the morning
[02:10.81]Mourning all the night
[02:13.99]And in between it's nicotine
[02:17.60]And not much heart to fight
[02:20.96]Black coffee
[02:25.98]Feelin' low as the ground
[02:32.48]It's driving me crazy just waiting for my baby
[02:39.95]To maybe come around
[02:45.69]Around
[02:49.23]I waiting for my baby
[02:54.39]To maybe come around
